If your weekend plans include staying in, snacks within reach, and scrolling endlessly for something new to watch, this week’s OTT slate has you covered. From big-ticket Telugu entertainers to thought-provoking Tamil dramas and light-hearted Malayalam family films, streaming platforms are rolling out a mix that suits every mood. Whether you missed a theatrical release or are simply looking for something fresh, here’s a simple guide to the South Indian OTT releases dropping between February 2 and February 8.
Latest South OTT releases of the week
The Raja Saab – February 6, JioHotstar
After a short but buzz-filled theatrical run, The Raja Saab is ready to entertain viewers at home. Directed by Maruthi, the film brings horror with comedy and stars Prabhas in the lead. The story leans into spooky elements while keeping things light with humour and family drama. Along with Prabhas, the film features Sanjay Dutt, Boman Irani, Malavika Mohanan, Nidhhi Agerwal, Riddhi Kumar, and Zarina Wahab.
Parasakthi – February 7, ZEE5
Released in theatres during Pongal, Parasakthi now makes its way to OTT after a steady box office run. The Tamil socio-political drama stars Sivakarthikeyan and Ravi Mohan in pivotal roles. Set against a politically charged backdrop, the film explores student movements, power struggles, and social justice. With a strong supporting cast that includes Sreeleela, Atharvaa Murali, Guru Somasundaram, Sandhya Mridul, and Chetan, Parasakthi is a good pick for viewers who enjoy meaningful cinema with strong performances.
Sarvam Maya – Streaming now, JioHotstar
Already streaming since January 30, Sarvam Maya has quietly found its audience online. The Malayalam family entertainer stars Nivin Pauly and Riya Shibu, with Aju Varghese adding to the humour. The film has been appreciated for its light tone. Riya Shibu’s performance, especially, has stood out among viewers. Easy to watch and high on repeat value, this one works well for a relaxed family movie night.
Nari Nari Naduma Murari – February 4, Amazon Prime Video
Romantic comedies get their moment this week with Nari Nari Naduma Murari. Starring Sharwanand, Samyuktha, and Sakshi Vaidya, the film revolves around a young man caught between two women and the emotional confusion that follows. It’s the kind of film you can put on without much prep and enjoy casually.
Lucky – February 20, JioHotstar
Though arriving a little later, Lucky deserves a mention for those planning ahead. This upcoming Tamil web series stars G.V. Prakash Kumar and Anaswara Rajan and revolves around an unusual mix, a gifted dog, a child, and a political leader. The movie will start streaming from February 20.
