‘Ace' OTT release: When and where to watch Vijay Sethupathi's film
After hitting theatres on May 23, 2025,
Vijay Sethupathi
's latest venture 'Ace' has now made its way to OTT.
Directed by a fresh voice in Tamil cinema, the film blends quirky humour with suspense and drama, offering a layered narrative that swings between light-hearted romance and gritty crime.
Streaming details
While Ace received mixed reviews from critics and underperformed at the box office, the film is now getting a second life on OTT, where audiences can enjoy it from the comfort of their homes. The romantic crime comedy is now available for streaming on Amazon Prime Video, less than a month after its theatrical release.
Plot: A botched heist changes everything
'Ace' follows the story of Kannan (played by Vijay Sethupathi), a man trying to rebuild his life abroad with new dreams and aspirations.
However, things take an unexpected turn when he gets involved in a failed heist. This misstep throws him into a chaotic criminal underworld, where every move is a game of survival.

As the narrative unfolds, Kannan is forced to use wit and instinct to navigate through deceit, danger, and complex relationships. The story is laced with dark humour, adding an offbeat tone to the otherwise intense proceedings. His journey is as much about escaping crime as it is about confronting personal truths.

Stellar cast
Apart from Vijay Sethupathi's charismatic presence, 'Ace' features a strong supporting cast including Rukmini Vasanth—best known for her breakout role in Sapta Sagaradaache Ello. The film also stars popular names like Yogi Babu, BS Avinash, Babloo Prithiveeraj, Divya Pillai, and Ramesh Thilak.
A Passable Crime Caper That Doesn't Demand Much From Its Actors & Audience
ETimes gave the Vijay Sethupathi starrer a rating of 3 out of 5 and our review reads, 'And the cast helps.
Even if he's on autopilot, Vijay Sethupathi injects some charisma into the role, and has lowkey fun with material that's less demanding of the actor in him, much like how Kamal Haasan used to in films like Guru and Sattam in the 1980s. Rukmini, in her Tamil debut, passes muster; while her expressions are spot on, her lip-sync, though, is quite off in many places.
To give her the benefit of the doubt, maybe her lines were rewritten during the dubbing stage. Babloo Prithveeraj and BS Avinash are okayish as the antagonists while Divya Pillai has little to do in an underwritten role. Thankfully, Yogi Babu is in good form here, and it is his comic counters that make the film entertaining to the extent it is.'
Whether you're a fan of Sethupathi's unconventional roles or simply in the mood for a genre-bending film, 'Ace' might be just what your OTT watchlist needs this weekend.

You won't believe what Apoorva Mukhija said about claims of her net worth being Rs 41 crore: 'I have to...'
For the past few months, social media influencer Apoorva Mukhija, aka The Rebel Kid, has been making headlines. Once again, the social media star raised eyebrows when reports of her rumoured daily earnings of Rs 2.5 lakh and a Rs 41 crore net worth surfaced online. She has now openly addressed the matter, clearing the air regarding the rumours making rounds online. Taking to her Instagram stories, the social media influencer shared a post that mentioned her rumoured earnings and dropped a comment below, which read, 'Galat hai bhai????? (It's wrong).' For the unversed, the post shared by Apoorva mentions, 'According to Business Today, Apoorva Mukhija makes Rs 2.5 lakh every single day, and with her savage online alter ego 'Kaleshi Aurat', she's built a Rs 41 crore empire, charging up to Rs 6 lakh for a reel ad and Rs 2 lakh for a 30-second story.' Take a look here: Earlier, in an interview with Bollywood Bubble, Apoorva opened up about her earnings and said, 'I am everywhere, but my net worth is not even close to Rs 41 crore. I'm not even making one-tenth of that. These clothes are rented. I have to return them after this. My heels are dirty, nails are fake, and my watch—which is ₹20,000—is the most expensive thing I'm wearing.' She added, 'If I ever make Rs 10 crore, I'll retire. Someone take me there. Give me money!' Meanwhile, Apoorva was last seen in The Traitors. The show was hosted by Karan Johar and streamed on Amazon Prime Video.
