Dexter Returns With A Vengeance In ‘Dexter: Resurrection', Streaming On This OTT Platform from July 12
Curated By : Yatamanyu Narain Last Updated: July 10, 2025, 19:22 IST Dexter: Resurrection, the gripping new chapter in the beloved crime thriller franchise, premieres July 12 exclusively on Prime Video India Prime Video is set to take fans on another pulse-pounding ride with Dexter: Resurrection, the latest chapter in the iconic crime thriller franchise. Streaming exclusively in India from July 12, the series marks the much-anticipated return of Michael C. Hall as the complex and compelling Dexter Morgan. Created by Clyde Phillips and directed by Marcos Siega and Monica Raymund, the new season also features powerhouse performances from Peter Dinklage, Uma Thurman, and Jack Alcott, adding even more weight to the psychological saga. Set in the wake of Dexter: New Blood, the story picks up with Dexter surviving a near-fatal shot inflicted by his own son, Harrison. Waking up from a coma and finding Harrison vanished without a clue, Dexter is thrust into a harrowing manhunt through the shadowy underbelly of New York City. Haunted by his past and desperate to reunite with his son, he is forced to confront both old demons and new adversaries. At the centre of this new nightmare is Leon Prater, a cold-blooded billionaire and leader of a chilling network of serial killers. As Dexter navigates this sinister web, the series dives deep into the moral ambiguity, guilt, and psychological torment that have always defined his character — and made him so relatable to fans of the genre. With its trademark blend of nail-biting suspense and emotional complexity, Dexter: Resurrection promises to raise the stakes higher than ever before, exploring not just the killer within, but the father, the fugitive, and the fractured soul behind the bloodstained gloves.

Arun Govil Says No Current Star Can Play Lord Ram: 'Find Someone Outside Bollywood'
Curated By : Yatamanyu Narain Last Updated: June 05, 2025, 19:43 IST Arun Govil questions modern Ramayan retellings and says no current Bollywood actor, including Ranbir Kapoor, is fit to portray Lord Ram. Suggests casting outsider. Arun Govil, the actor revered across generations for his iconic portrayal of Lord Ram in Ramanand Sagar's Ramayan, has shared candid thoughts on the many modern attempts to reimagine the epic. Speaking in an interview with NDTV, the actor — now a BJP Member of Parliament from Meerut — expressed deep skepticism about contemporary actors stepping into the sacred role that defined his career and became a cultural cornerstone in Indian television history. 'Three-four people have tried recreating it, but they weren't successful," Govil said. 'I don't think in our lifetime someone should attempt to remake Ramayan. When it comes to playing Ram, none of the stars we have today fit the part in my opinion. Maybe someone from outside the industry might be more suitable." His remarks come during the second phase of the Pran Pratishtha ceremony at the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya, a spiritual and political milestone that echoes the themes of devotion and righteousness long associated with the Ramayan narrative. Govil's portrayal of Lord Ram across 78 episodes from 1987 to 1988 was nothing short of legendary, turning Sunday mornings at 9:30 am on Doordarshan into a near-spiritual ritual for households across India. The show left such a cultural impact that even decades later, attempts to recreate its magic have struggled to find acceptance. His comments also appear to be a subtle critique of recent cinematic interpretations — most notably the 2023 film Adipurush, which cast Prabhas as Ram and faced widespread backlash for its creative liberties and underwhelming execution. The film was a critical and commercial disappointment. Interestingly, Govil's statement arrives just as Ranbir Kapoor gears up to don the role of Lord Ram in Nitesh Tiwari's much-anticipated film adaptation of Ramayan. Touted as a two-part cinematic saga, it is scheduled for release on Diwali in 2026 and 2027. While the anticipation around Tiwari's version builds, Arun Govil's words serve as a reminder that when it comes to mythological icons like Lord Ram, audiences expect more than just star power — they seek divinity in performance.
