What,s New on Streaming This Week
This week’s streaming line-up is a nice mix — horror, thrillers, emotional dramas, and light-hearted stories. There really is something for everyone, whether you want suspense, romance, horror or a feel-good watch.
What’s dropping now
• On Netflix: The Girlfriend (Telugu) arrives this week. It’s an emotionally intense drama about a relationship that turns complicated and tests boundaries. People who like realistic stories about love, trust and psychological strain might find this compelling.
• Also on Netflix, Stephen, a psychological-crime thriller, is out now. It’s dark, twisted, and built around a killer’s confession that draws investigators into a world of deceit and tension.
• For horror lovers: Dies Irae lands on JioHotstar this week. It promises eerie atmosphere and supernatural horror — for those who like their scares serious and spine-chilling.
• On SonyLIV, you can check out Kuttram Purindhavan: The Guilty One, a crime thriller that dives into a missing-girl case. If you enjoy suspenseful investigations and gritty storytelling, this one’s a good pick.
• On ZEE5, there’s a lighter option: The Great Pre-Wedding Show — a comedy-drama about a small-town photographer whose misadventures around a pre-wedding shoot spiral into chaos. A fun, easy watch if you prefer something entertaining yet not too heavy.
There are also other releases across platforms — from regional thrillers to comedies and holiday-special films. The variety means you can easily pick something depending on your mood.
What to Watch Depending on Your Mood
Craving Tension & Mystery?
Go for Stephen or KuttramPurindhavan: The Guilty One. Both offer gripping crime stories and keep you guessing till the end.
Feeling Romantic or Emotional?
The Girlfriend delivers emotional drama around relationships — intense, raw, and gripping. It’s ideal if you like realistic, relatable stories.
Want Horror & Thrills?
Dies Irae will sprinkle some horror vibes into your weekend plans. If you enjoy darker stories, this horror-thriller could hit the spot.
Looking for a Light, Fun Time?
The Great Pre-Wedding Show is a good pick if you want to unwind with a story that’s entertaining without heavy emotions.
What’s Good (and What to Keep in Mind)
What works well this week:
• Great variety across genres — there’s horror, crime thriller, romance, comedy, regional cinema. Something for everyone’s taste.
• Regional cinema and stories from different languages — a nice chance to explore beyond mainstream content.
• Fresh releases mean minimal spoilers and maximum excitement.
Things to remember:
• Some stories are intense — psychological thrillers and horror may be heavy, so watch them when you’re in the right mood.
• If you prefer light or feel-good content, choose accordingly (e.g. go for comedy-drama rather than dark thrillers).
• Not all titles are in the same language or with subtitles, so check language options before starting.
My Picks & What I’m Watching
If I were you and planning a binge-watch weekend:
• I’d start with Stephen, for a strong dose of suspense and grit.
• Then maybe switch gears with The Great Pre-Wedding Show — something light-hearted to balance the mood.
• And if I’m in the mood for horror by night, Dies Irae would be my pick.
This mix gives a little bit of everything — drama, thrill, laughs, and maybe a scare.
