Dhoom Dhaam
Hindi language movie | Action/Comedy | Netflix
So, if you’re in the mood for something light-hearted, breezy, and totally entertaining — with a twist on the usual wedding rom-com formula — Dhoom Dhaam on Netflix might just hit the spot. Think arranged marriage, mistaken identity, high-speed chases, and a gender role reversal that’s both endearing and hilarious (even if a tad predictable). Yami Gautam Dhar, who rarely ever gives a bad performance, plays Koyal with charm and fire, while Pratik Gandhi is an absolute delight as Veer — a timid, unsuspecting groom caught in a wild ride on his wedding night. Basically, ‘saviour complex’ flipped on its head. So, don’t expect nuance, but do expect fun, and maybe even a few unexpectedly progressive punches!

Uppu Kappurambu
Telugu language movie | Comedy | Prime Video
At a time when Telugu cinema is running high with its larger-than-life productions, giving its larger peer Bollywood a run for its money, this comedy flick feels like a breath of fresh air.
Headlined by Keerthy Suresh and supported by Suhas and Babu Mohan, the movie directed by Ani IV Sasi centres around a unique problem facing a fictitious village: What happens when it runs out of burial space? Suresh plays the village chief confronting the problem in a production that blends eccentricity, satire and humour.

The Boys
Prime Video | 4 Seasons | Superhero Satire / Action
Everyone’s talking about James Gunn’s Superman this weekend — and while it’s a fresh, hopeful take on the cape, here’s something that throws hope out the window and asks: What if superheroes were corporate-owned narcissists with zero morals?
Enter The Boys — a gloriously unhinged, R-rated takedown of superhero worship. Brutal, hilarious, and uncomfortably relevant, it imagines a world where "heroes" are products and power is pure corruption. Antony Starr as Homelander delivers one of the best villain performances on TV, while Karl Urban’s Billy Butcher is the scruffy, foul-mouthed human fighting back. It’s sharp, savage, and absolutely binge-worthy. Season 5 just wrapped filming — so if you haven’t jumped in yet, you’ve got a year to catch up.

Heretic
Apple TV | 1h 51m| Horror
How far can belief get you? Can faith change your fate? If you find yourself in a house with a creepy killer, but no one knows, do you have any hope of getting out? This psychological thriller starring a brilliantly foul Hugh Grant is a lesson in mental (and physical) manipulation – with a little body horror thrown in.
When two young women missionaries show up at a remote house and try to talk faith to a seemingly innocuous middle-aged man who lures them in only to dissect their beliefs and then offer them two doors out of his home, they must reassess everything they believe in, including how far they will go to survive.
