### The Big One: Kara (Netflix, May 28)

**Cast:** Dhanush, Mamitha Baiju, Suraj Venjaramoodu, Jayaram **Director:** Vignesh Raja | **Runtime:** 2 hrs 41 mins

Set in early 1990s Ramanathapuram, *Kara* follows Karasaami — a small-time robber trying to go straight. When he returns to his village to rescue his father from debt, what starts as a personal mission slowly turns into a larger battle for an entire community. Dhanush in a period setup, fighting for the underdogs? That’s a must-watch on paper. If you enjoy [streaming films rooted in regional culture and social drama](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tamil_cinema), this is your pick of the week.
