The OTT space has been gradually developing as an excellent platform for most films to gain the audience's attention. The Tamil and Telugu film industries recently saw the theatrical release of some of the most anticipated movies, which are now making their debut online.
Here are the new Tamil and Telugu movies that have been released on OTT and can be watched online this week.
Ace
Within a very short while of its theatrical release, Vijay Sethupathi's Tamil romantic crime comedy Ace has made an OTT debut. The movie revolves around the life of a man named Kannan, who seeks to start a new life by emigrating abroad to Malaysia.
However, he gets roped into the world of crime when his love for a girl makes him commit robbery in order to help her financially. However, his misdeed unexpectedly grabs the attention of an underworld gangster while his love interest's father turns out to be a cop.
DD Next Level
DD Next Level narrates the story of a filmmaker who gets trapped inside the world of the kind of films that he used to mock and ridicule for the longest time. As the bizarre reality of circumstances set in, he realises the need to find an escape route fast.
However, things become complicated for him since the alternate reality of the fictional world is controlled by a vengeful spirit who was once a failed filmmaker. Nonetheless, the latter continues to leave cryptic clues for the living filmmaker to exit the place.
Aa Okkati Adakku narrates the story of a man named Gana, who has been striving to end his bachelorhood status and get married soon. A priest prophecies to him that if he does not get married within the next 25 days, he will always remain a spinster.
While Gana gets easily tired of matchmaking schemes made by his neighbours, he decides to take help from a matrimonial service to evade the most horrid fate. There, he meets a woman who initially rejects him. However, he decides to win her over no matter what.
Dear Uma
The movie revolves around Dev, a rock star, whose chance meeting with a medical trainee, Uma, completely changes his life. Things begin when the former suffers from a heart ailment after an alcoholic spirals following a failed attempt at romance.
As it is, Uma, who treats him to good health, Dev realises that he has, in fact, fallen in love with her soul more than the person that she is. However, their romance is cut short with a shocking realisation, which forms the climax of the film.

Coolie Day 5 India Box Office Estimates: Rajinikanth's crime-drama falters on 1st Monday after record extended Kollywood opening weekend

Coolie, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, and starring Rajinikanth, had a record Kollywood opening weekend of Rs 227.25 crore. Not just that, it also took a record Kollywood global opening of Rs 375 crore. While the weekend was record-breaking, the numbers were slightly under expectations, given how big the movie opened. Based on the opening day, the weekend numbers should have been close to Rs 250 crore in India and over Rs 400 crore worldwide. Coolie Falters On 1st Monday By Grossing Just Rs 12 Crore The mixed word of mouth took a toll on the Lokesh Kanagaraj movie. After the already slumping weekend trend, the movie grossed just Rs 12 crore on day 6. The numbers are 80 percent down from Independence Day Friday and that's alarming. If the movie continues to drop like this, a Rs 300 crore gross India final can be a struggle. Also, that would mean that a Rs 500 crore gross worldwide finish would become impossible, as the highest that Coolie can do at the international box office based on its current trend is USD 21 million (Rs 183 crore gross). The collections in Tamil Nadu will likely end under that of Good Bad Ugly. The collections in Kerala shall end up being half of what Jailer did in 2023. The film's exceptional Karnataka and APTS collections over the opening weekend should ensure that the film breaks even or atleast comes very close to it. The Day Wise India Gross Collections Of Coolie Are As Under Day India Gross Collections Thursday Rs 75.50 crore Friday Rs 63.25 crore Saturday Rs 47 crore Sunday Rs 41.50 crore Monday Rs 12 crore Total Rs 239.25 crore gross in 5 days Coolie Will End Up As One Of The Top 5 Highest Grossing Kollywood Movies Worldwide But The Final Result Will Be Seen As Underwhelming Coolie, despite putting up record-breaking initial collections and being a film that will surely be a part of the top 5 highest grossing Tamil movies at the worldwide box office, will be seen as an underwhelmer because the expectations were of a record grosser. The Tamil industry will have to wait for Jailer 2 or Jana Nayagan to really see its potential unleashed again.
