OTT Releases This Week: What’s New?

This week’s selection is particularly strong for viewers who prefer having several genres to choose from rather than one dominant blockbuster. Netflix has some of the most recognisable titles, but regional and international releases on other platforms make the overall streaming schedule far more varied.

Hindi OTT Releases This Week

Dhamaal 4 | Netflix

The Dhamaal gang returns for another round of treasure hunting, misunderstandings and comic chaos. Ajay Devgn, Riteish Deshmukh, Arshad Warsi and Jaaved Jaaferi are back in the comedy franchise, with the familiar pursuit of money once again sending their characters into situations that rapidly spiral out of control.

This time, a hidden fortune is waiting to be found, but a torn map complicates the search and eventually sends the group towards a mysterious island. Their families become part of the adventure too, adding another layer of confusion to a journey already filled with mishaps. For audiences who have followed the franchise for its broad humour and ensemble comedy, Dhamaal 4 continues in familiar territory. The film is streaming in Hindi on Netflix.

Gandhari | Netflix

Taapsee Pannu leads Gandhari, a Hindi action thriller that places a mother’s search for her abducted daughter at the centre of the story. Pannu plays Bani, whose life changes dramatically when she loses her eyesight while trying to save her daughter from a human-trafficking operation.

Rather than allowing her disability to stop her search, Bani prepares herself for the dangers ahead and sets out to confront the people responsible. Ishwak Singh also features in the thriller, which combines a personal story of a mother’s determination with a wider confrontation involving a criminal network. Gandhari is streaming on Netflix.

The Gentlemen Season 2 | Netflix

Guy Ritchie’s crime comedy-drama returns with Theo James as Eddie Horniman and Kaya Scodelario as Susie Glass. After the events of the first season, Eddie and Susie are no longer dealing only with the criminal operation connected to his inherited estate. Their ambitions have grown, and their business interests are becoming increasingly international.

The expansion brings greater risks. Their operation moves further into Europe, attracting the attention of aristocratic families and dangerous criminal players who are unlikely to stand aside while Eddie and Susie build their empire. The result is another battle involving money, influence, loyalty and control. The Gentlemen Season 2 is streaming on Netflix.

The Runner | Amazon Prime Video

Gal Gadot takes the lead in The Runner, a thriller that turns an ordinary morning run into a terrifying race to save a kidnapped child. She plays Maia Marten, a London lawyer who discovers that her son has been abducted and that the person responsible is watching her movements.

A mysterious caller orders Maia to continue running through London while completing a series of increasingly dangerous instructions. She cannot simply stop or seek an easy escape because her son’s safety depends on her cooperation. The premise keeps the action centred on Maia’s physical journey through the city while forcing her into progressively more difficult moral choices. The Runner is available on Amazon Prime Video.

Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu | JioHotstar

Din Djarin and Grogu are together again in Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu, bringing one of the week’s biggest franchise titles to streaming audiences. Set after the fall of the Empire, their latest adventure unfolds while the New Republic is still trying to establish order.

The pair are given a dangerous mission involving Rotta the Hutt, the son of crime lord Jabba the Hutt. Their attempt to rescue him takes them into pirate-controlled territory, where creatures, traps and heavily protected locations stand between them and their objective. The English-language Star Wars adventure is streaming on JioHotstar.

Regional OTT Releases This Week

Regional Indian entertainment makes up an important part of the OTT releases this week, with Tamil, Telugu and Malayalam productions adding courtroom drama, music, revenge, supernatural comedy and psychological mystery to the weekend selection.

Unmadham | SonyLIV

Kunchacko Boban leads Malayalam psychological crime thriller Unmadham as Shelly, a civil police officer who has another ambition away from his day job. Shelly wants to become a screenwriter, and an unresolved police case appears to offer exactly the kind of material he has been searching for.

His decision to revisit the investigation soon becomes far more complicated than gathering inspiration for a screenplay. As Shelly digs deeper into the old mystery, his police work and creative imagination begin to overlap, while apparently supernatural elements further blur the distinction between reality and illusion. Unmadham is streaming on SonyLIV.

The Court | JioHotstar

Tamil legal drama The Court makes its central courtroom battle intensely personal by placing a young lawyer opposite her own father. Yazhini, played by R. Yogalakshmi, is determined to build a successful legal career despite living with a speech impairment.

Her professional and personal worlds collide when a major case puts her on the opposing side from her father, an experienced lawyer with a formidable courtroom record. The legal battle therefore becomes about more than winning a case, testing Yazhini’s confidence and determination as she attempts to establish herself independently. The Court is available on JioHotstar.

Jagamae Sangeetham | Amazon Prime Video

Music is at the heart of Jagamae Sangeetham, an eight-part series exploring the tension between artistic ambition, financial realities and family tradition. Balu has grown up carrying the expectation that he will preserve his family’s prestigious musical legacy, while Pallavi comes from a very different creative world as a successful pop singer.

When Balu and Pallavi fall in love, their relationship begins to expose old family secrets and long-standing rivalries. Balu is consequently forced to consider whether fulfilling the expectations placed on him is compatible with pursuing the life and artistic identity he actually wants. Jagamae Sangeetham is streaming on Amazon Prime Video.

DC | Sun NXT

DC takes elements associated with the familiar Devdas story and places them within a much darker Tamil revenge narrative. Lokesh Kanagaraj and Wamiqa Gabbi feature in a story driven by characters whose lives have been thrown into turmoil by corrupt police officers.

Instead of approaching its source inspiration as a conventional romantic tragedy, DC shifts towards violence and retaliation as its characters pursue those they believe are responsible for their suffering. The Tamil film is available on Sun NXT.

Korean Kanakaraju | Netflix

Korean Kanakaraju adds horror-comedy to the week’s regional selection. The Telugu story follows a man whose already ordinary life takes a bizarre turn when he becomes possessed by the spirit of a Korean mafia figure.

The supernatural encounter does not simply leave him dealing with a ghost. He becomes caught up in the mystery surrounding the spirit’s murder, sending him on an unexpected journey while the possession causes turmoil in his personal life. Korean Kanakaraju is streaming on Netflix.

International OTT Releases This Week

Viewers interested in international entertainment also have several options, ranging from Cold War action and romance to a quieter French drama. Together with The Runner and The Gentlemen Season 2, these titles make the international selection one of the more varied parts of this week’s streaming schedule.

Mayday | Apple TV+

Ryan Reynolds and Kenneth Branagh come together in Mayday, an action-comedy set during the Cold War. Reynolds plays US Navy pilot Troy Kelly, who finds himself stranded behind enemy lines after a surveillance mission goes wrong in 1987.

His unlikely rescuer is Nikolai Ustinov, played by Branagh, a former KGB agent with a fascination for American popular culture. Instead of immediately turning the American pilot over to Soviet authorities, Nikolai helps him recover and evade capture. Their unexpected partnership forms the centre of a story combining Cold War danger with action and comedy. Mayday is available on Apple TV+.

Love Story | JioHotstar

Love Story moves away from fictional crime and action to revisit the real-life relationship between John F. Kennedy Jr and Carolyn Bessette. The nine-episode production explores the couple’s romance as well as its tragic conclusion.

Kennedy, the son of former US president John F. Kennedy, became one of the most closely watched figures in American public life, while Bessette worked as a publicist for Calvin Klein. Their relationship became the subject of enormous media attention, giving the series a real-world story very different from most of the fictional releases arriving this week. Love Story is available on JioHotstar.

Nino | Prime Video

French drama Nino offers a more reflective alternative to the week’s action-heavy releases. Its 29-year-old central character receives a cancer diagnosis, forcing him to confront questions about his future and mortality while moving through the streets of Paris.

The story focuses less on dramatic twists and more on how a young man processes life-changing news. That makes Nino one of the quieter additions to the week’s streaming schedule and an option for audiences looking for character-driven drama rather than crime, comedy or spectacle. The French-language film is available on Prime Video.

Filing for Love | Amazon Prime Video

Korean series Filing for Love brings workplace romance into the mix, with Gong Myung and Shin Hye-sun playing colleagues whose relationship develops against a complicated professional backdrop.

Their office romance does not unfold in isolation. Scandals, secrets and conspiracies surround the pair, giving the relationship additional complications as their personal and professional lives begin to overlap. The Korean-language series is available on Amazon Prime Video.

What to Watch This Weekend

The OTT releases this week offer enough variety that the choice will largely depend on mood. Viewers looking for straightforward comedy can turn to Dhamaal 4, while Gandhari and The Runner provide darker, more urgent thrillers. Crime drama fans have the return of The Gentlemen, while The Court offers courtroom tension and Unmadham moves into more psychologically unsettling territory.

There are equally strong alternatives for viewers wanting something outside the biggest Hindi and English-language releases. Jagamae Sangeetham explores music and family expectations, Korean Kanakaraju mixes horror with comedy, and Nino offers a quieter character-driven story. With Netflix, Prime Video, JioHotstar, SonyLIV, Sun NXT and Apple TV+ all adding new titles, the first weekend of September 2026 has become one of those streaming weeks where deciding what to watch may take almost as long as choosing when to start.
