A gripping courtroom drama, Sattamum Needhiyum introduces Sundaramoorthy, a mild-mannered lawyer who finds himself at the center of a legal storm when a man self-immolates outside court. As the system's flaws unravel before him, Sundaramoorthy is forced to question whether law can truly serve justice. With compelling performances by Star Saravanan and Namritha, this series offers a searing take on media trials and legal morality.

Ammy Virk, Sargun Mehta, and Nimrat Khaira return with double the drama in this much-awaited Punjabi comedy sequel.

With wit, confusion, and desi flair, Saunkan Saunkne 2 promises non-stop laughs and unexpected alliances.

Ronth is a gripping police thriller that chronicles the lives of a weary senior cop and his fresh-faced partner as they navigate graveyard shifts, buried trauma, and a case that could cost them everything.

Tense, atmospheric, and character-driven, Ronth is a rare gem from the Northeast you shouldn't miss.
6. Kaliyugam
Now Streaming | SunNXT | Tamil
This dystopian Tamil thriller set in a future ruled by corrupt algorithms and unchecked power follows Shraddha Srinath as a lone crusader challenging systemic rot. Directed by Pramod Sundar, Kaliyugam 1988 blends science fiction with social realism, resulting in a film that's visually sharp, politically urgent, and emotionally charged. It's not just entertainment—it's a wake-up call about the future we may be sleepwalking into.
