Shraddha Srinath's futuristic thriller, 'Kaliyugam,' after its theatrical release earlier this year, is now gearing up for its digital release. Directed by Pramodh Sundar, the dystopian drama can now be watched globally on the internet.
OTT details
'Kaliyugam' will be released on the OTT platform Simply South. The streaming platform confirmed through its social media handle that the film will be available for streaming from June 20 onwards. However, the film will not be accessible to viewers within India and will be available exclusively for international audiences.
On X (formerly Twitter), they wrote, "#Kaliyugam, streaming on Simply South from June 20 worldwide, excluding India."
Plot of the film
The movie is set in the future, 2064, in a post-apocalyptic world plagued by a series of unending catastrophes. Society has become deeply divided not just socially and economically, but physically. A large wall separates the privileged, known as the "residents," from the poor and deprived who struggle to survive on the other side.
The film's central plot revolves around a man named Sketch, played by actor Kishore. Sketch stumbles upon a hidden safe house filled with comforts usually reserved for the elite.

However, the safe house is located outside the wall, far from the grasp of the privileged class.
Upon its release, the film received a varied response at the box office; it got praise for its ambitious storyline but got criticism for its lackluster execution and underwhelmingness.
The film also features Iniyan Subramani, Asmal, Harry, Mithun, David Santhosh, Master Ronith, and Kesavan in supporting roles.

'Detective Ujjwalan' OTT release: Dhyan Sreenivasan starrer to stream on THIS platform

(Picture Courtesy: Facebook) After a decent theatrical run since its release on May 23, 2025, 'Detective Ujjwalan', starring Dhyan Sreenivasan , has kept fans guessing about its digital debut. Now, reports suggest that the wait might be over soon. The film is reportedly heading to Netflix for its OTT release — though no official date has been confirmed yet. According to film industry buzz, including a social media post by AB George, Netflix is believed to have picked up the digital rights. This move comes as a surprise to many, as the streaming giant hasn't often backed Malayalam films in recent months. So why Detective Ujjwalan? The 'Minnal Murali' connection Industry insiders speculate that the decision is largely due to the film's ties with Minnal Murali, the Tovino Thomas superhero hit. Detective Ujjwalan is set in the same cinematic universe — known as the Weekend Cinematic Universe — and takes place in the neighboring village of Plaachikkaavu. That shared universe connection may have been key in attracting Netflix's interest. On the TV front, there's also chatter that ZEE Network has acquired the satellite rights. What the film Is about and ETimes verdict Directed by Indraneel Gopeekrishnan and Rahul G, Detective Ujjwalan follows a quirky local detective navigating through minor village crimes — until a chilling series of murders shakes up his sleepy hometown. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Is your tinnitus getting worse? Do this immediately (Watch) Hearing Magazine Undo ETimes gave the Dhyan Sreenivasan starrer a rating of 2.5 stars out of 5 and our official review reads, "There are some rules that a detective story needs to make it work and for the effect to stay with us. Some red herrings that will confuse the audience so that we are emotionally and intellectually caught up in the story, a detective who uses logic that will baffle us with its brilliance and a final revelation of the culprit that will shock us. Detective Ujjwalan does not use any of these devices in a forceful enough manner. The period settings are interesting and the village characters are loveable enough, though some of the superb comic talents from social media, Ameen, Nihal Nizam, Nibraz and Shahubas, are barely utilised. The film seems to go in the direction of most Dhyan films; a bit of an anti-climax."

Ajith Kumar shares thoughts on racing films in India; says, "Maybe Fast and Furious or F1 sequel"

Picture Credit: Facebook Apart from being one of Tamil cinema's most bankable stars, Ajith Kumar is also a known motorsport enthusiast who continues to balance his passion for acting and racing. Recently, ahead of a racing event, the superstar was seen interacting with a reporter, where he shared his thoughts on a racing based film made in India. Open to a Fast & Furious-type role As seen in a post shared by Laxmi Kanth on X (formerly Twitter) during the interaction, the reporter asked Ajith if he would be interested in starring in a film based on racing, especially with the genre gaining global popularity thanks to franchises like 'Fast & Furious' and the increasing presence of Formula 1 in entertainment circles. Responding to it, Ajith said, "I guess maybe Fast and Furious sequel.. or F1 sequel. . I normally perform my own stunts in the film.. So if there's a calling why not." — iammoviebuff007 (@iammoviebuff007) While nothing official has been announced, the idea of a race-based Indian film with Ajith in the lead certainly holds potential, especially at a time when pan-India projects are embracing new genres and stories rooted in global appeal. After a hiatus, he made a strong comeback in 2025 by launching his own racing team, Ajith Kumar Racing, and competing in prestigious events like the Michelin 24H Dubai and the GT4 European Series. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo What's next for Ajith Kumar?
