Fans of mystery and comedy, rejoice! The beloved Emmy-winning series 'Only Murders in the Building' is back with its much-anticipated fifth season, premiering exclusively on JioHotstar on September 9, 2025. To kick things off, the first three episodes will drop on premiere day, with new episodes releasing weekly thereafter. Starring the iconic trio Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez, the latest season finds the amateur sleuths once again pulled into the orbit of crime and chaos. When Lester, the cherished doorman of the Arconia, dies under murky circumstances, Charles, Oliver, and Mabel suspect foul play — and they won't rest until the truth comes to light. Their investigation pulls them deep into the darkest corners of New York and beyond, exposing a tangled web of secrets that involves old-school mobsters, ruthless billionaires, and enigmatic neighbours. As they follow the trail, the trio confronts the changing face of the city — one where legacy criminals battle to retain power while newer, more sinister figures step into the void. The star-studded cast includes returning favourite Michael Cyril Creighton, with an impressive line-up of guest stars such as Meryl Streep, Nathan Lane, Renée Zellweger, Logan Lerman, Christoph Waltz, Téa Leoni, Keegan-Michael Key, and many more.

Last Updated: The story blends themes of love, familial bonding and comedy, offering an emotionally rich and entertaining experience. Vijay Sethupathi and Nithya Menen's latest romantic comedy-drama Thalaivan Thalaivii has been winning hearts. The film was released in theatres on July 25, 2025. Now, reports suggest that the film's OTT streaming rights have been acquired by Amazon Prime Video. The film is directed by Pandiraj, known for Etharkkum Thunindhavan. The Times Of India has quoted the latest reports mentioning that a major streaming platform has bought the rights of the film. It will release on Amazon Prime Video. However, neither the makers nor streaming platform has confirmed the news. The story blends themes of love, familial bonding and comedy, offering an emotionally rich and entertaining experience. Audiences have already begun responding positively, with social media flooded with praise for the film's feel-good narrative, relatable characters and warm performances. The film also features comedian Yogi Babu in a special role and the music by Santhosh Narayanan has been widely appreciated for adding emotional depth and charm to the storyline. Although the film was initially announced to have a Telugu version titled Sir Madam, its release status remains unclear. While the Tamil version opened in theatres as planned, tickets for Sir Madam are yet to be listed in Telugu-speaking regions. So far, there has been no official confirmation from the makers about whether the Telugu version will see a delayed theatrical release or skip theatres in favour of a direct OTT premiere. Industry insiders speculate that the team may have chosen to avoid a box-office clash with the big-budget Telugu film Hari Hara Veera Mallu. Vijay Sethupathi has an exciting lineup of films beyond Thalaivan Thalaivii. Up next is Gandhi Talks, an experimental silent comedy-drama written and directed by Kishor Pandurang Belekar. The film co-stars Aditi Rao Hydari, Arvind Swamy, Mahesh Manjrekar and others and has already made history as the first Indian silent film to be screened at the International Film Festival of India (IFFI). Nithya Menen will next be seen in Idly Kadai, a Tamil-language drama directed and co-produced by Dhanush under his home banner, Wunderbar Films, in association with Dawn Pictures. The film pairs Nithya with Dhanush in the lead and features a strong ensemble cast including Arun Vijay, Shalini Pandey, Sathyaraj, Parthiban, P. Samuthirakani and Rajkiran.
