Final Destination: Bloodlines has turned out to be a box office beast in India, riding right behind Tom Cruise's Mission: Impossible – Final Reckoning.

It's still going strong in theatres, but for those who skipped the big screen, it's already landed on OTT. Released on May 16, the film dropped on Prime Video on June 17, 2025. Bloodlines has become the franchise's biggest hit with a $271.7 million haul worldwide. Critics are calling it the best yet, with a solid 92% score on Rotten Tomatoes.

According to Forbes, in a recent press release from Warner Bros., the film will also be available on the paid versions of different platforms, including Fandango at Home and Movies Anywhere, for US residents. A physical release of the film is also lined up. If you prefer disc over digital, the Blu-ray, DVD, and limited-edition 4K Steelbook versions drop on July 22, and pre-orders are open on Amazon. Apart from these, a full box set of all six Final Destination films is hitting stores the same day.
In India, the film is available to stream in English, Tamil, Telugu & Hindi.
The story picks up with Stefani Reyes (played by Kaitlyn Santa Juana), getting nightmares about a woman named Iris, who turns out to be her maternal grandmother. Stefani is haunted by dreams where a hotel tower collapses and everyone dies, back in 1968. She travels back home to uncover the truth, and realises those visuals were not just dreams but inherited premonitions passed down from her grandmother, Iris Campbell. Once she starts digging into the family's history and meets her estranged grandmother, who dies while explaining the situation, Stefani discovers a chain of death approaching her family. Death is after her entire bloodline, and she has to break the curse before time runs out. The film keeps you hooked till the climax and has received raving reviews globally.

In India, despite strong competition from titles like Mission: Impossible and other Bollywood films, the movie has brought in over ₹76 crore, opening to a strong ₹4.5 crore on Day 1.
The film stars Kaitlyn Santa Juana as Stefani Reyes, Teo Briones as Charlie, her younger brother, Gabrielle Rose as Iris, the grandmother, and Richard Harmon, Owen Patrick Joyner, Anna Lore as the Campbell cousins. Tony Todd returns as the iconic William Bludworth.

Vinayakan's poem on late V.S. Achuthanandan stirs controversy; tone called disrespectful

(Picture Courtesy: Facebook) Malayalam actor Vinayakan is once again in the eye of a storm after sharing a controversial poem on Facebook about the death of veteran CPM leader and former Kerala Chief Minister V.S. Achuthanandan. As reported by On Manorama, the poem, which also references the deaths of political giants like Rajiv Gandhi, Mahatma Gandhi, Jawaharlal Nehru, and K. Karunakaran, has drawn sharp reactions online. Vinayakan steps into controversy over 'Who is Oommen Chandy' statement What has particularly upset many is the disrespectful tone in which the deaths are addressed, including that of V.S., who passed away recently at the age of 100. Critics on social media have called the post insensitive, especially considering the legacy and respect that Achuthanandan commands in Kerala's political and public memory. Backlash from the past returns This isn't the first time Vinayakan has attracted controversy with his remarks on political figures. The actor had sparked widespread anger with his remarks following the death of former Kerala Chief Minister Oommen Chandy during a Facebook live session. During the live session which happened on July 18, 2023, Vinayakan questioned the media attention surrounding the funeral and made a statement that many deemed offensive: 'Who is this Oommen Chandy, why three days leave… He is dead, so what should we do?' Legal trouble and public outcry The remarks made during that Facebook live session led to a police case being registered against Vinayakan at the Ernakulam Town North police station.
