Quick Read:

Pick 1: Dhindora Season 1 (Netflix, October 28)
Dhindora is the biggest name this week. It stars Bhuvan Bam. He is best known as the creator of BB Ki Vines. BB Ki Vines made him one of India’s first big YouTube stars. Dhindora first came out on YouTube in 2021. Now Season 1 arrives on Netflix on October 28.
The show is a comedy-drama about an ordinary family and an extraordinary problem. Bhuvan Bam plays multiple roles in it. That is his signature style. Fans of BB Ki Vines will recognise the humour at once. New viewers can start here too. You do not need to know his old videos to enjoy it.
Watch it if you like light comedy with heart. It is a good family watch. The episodes are easy to finish in one or two sittings. If you only watch one thing this week, this is the safest pick.
Pick 2: Baththa (Netflix, this week)
Baththa is the thriller pick of the week. It stars Vijay Sethupathi. The film is a Tamil thriller. It released in theatres on October 1. Now it comes to Netflix this week. The exact streaming date was not confirmed in the sources for this guide, so it is marked here as “date to confirm”. Please check Netflix before planning your watch.
The story has a sharp hook. A boy locks a criminal inside a school restroom. That one act sets off the whole film. Balaji Tharaneetharan directs it. The film mixes tension with dark humour. Vijay Sethupathi is known for picking unusual scripts. This one fits that pattern.
Watch it if you like tight thrillers. It is not a long, slow drama. The premise pulls you in fast. If you like films where one small act causes big trouble, this is your pick.

Pick 3: Koffee with Karan 9, Episode 3 (JioHotstar, October 28)
Koffee with Karan returns with a big episode. Season 9, Episode 3 streams on JioHotstar on October 28. The guests are Janhvi Kapoor, Arjun Kapoor, and Varun Dhawan. The promo for the episode came out on October 24. It already has fans talking.
The show is Karan Johar’s famous chat show. Stars talk about films, family, and gossip. This episode brings together three actors with strong family links in Bollywood. Arjun Kapoor and Janhvi Kapoor are cousins. Varun Dhawan joins them. Expect fun stories and quick games. The rapid-fire round is usually the best part.
Watch it if you like Bollywood gossip and light chat. It is not a serious show. It is a fun, easy watch. One episode is enough for an evening. You do not need to watch earlier episodes first.
Also on the list: Meethe Mein Kya Hai
Meethe Mein Kya Hai is a family drama on this week’s lists. It appears in the India TV OTT list. But its platform and exact date were not confirmed in the sources for this guide. So no date or platform is claimed here. Treat it as “date to confirm”. Check your streaming apps before you search for it. Family drama fans can keep it on their watchlist.
Already streaming: what you can watch right now
Some titles are already live. You do not need to wait for them. The Paradise, starring Nani, is on Netflix since October 22. Note one detail. The streaming cut is about 24 minutes shorter than the theatre version. So some scenes from the theatre release are not in this cut.
Dorothy, starring Keerthy Suresh, is on Netflix since October 23. Lupin Part 4 is also on Netflix since October 23. Gajab Raat joined Netflix on October 23 as well. The Terminal List Season 2 is on Prime Video. Its exact date was not confirmed in the sources for this guide, so it is marked “date to confirm”.
This is a strong catch-up list. If you missed the weekend releases, start here. The Paradise suits action fans. Dorothy suits drama fans. Lupin suits heist-thriller fans. There is no need to wait for the new week to start watching.
For the next batch of new titles, see this week’s OTT releases, October 27-30.
