Crime Thrillers
The series “Taskaree: The Smuggler’s Web” from Netflix keeps on being the most talked about topic.

The rough plot, together with realistic procedural details, makes it an irresistible watch for thriller fans.

Moreover, an international dimension is added with the hard-hitting cop drama “The Rip” that Netflix premieres as well, starring none other than Matt Damon and Ben Affleck.
The plot centers around two cops whose lives take a turn for the worse after they stumble upon a huge sum of money that was not accounted for, thus forcing them to deal with issues of loyalty, greed, and moral values.

The movie is based on the actual events of the 1962 Sino-Indian War and it tells the tale of the incredible valor of Indian soldiers, who were part of the Battle of Rezang La, through the emotional lens of storytelling, realistic war sequences, and a focus on the themes of sacrifice and courage. Thus, the film will probably be one of the most significant OTT releases of the weekend.
OTT Releases This Weekend in India: Comedy Hits
ZEE5 introduces “Mastiii 4”, the latest sequel of the well-known comedy franchise. The film is nothing but a continuation of the roots when it comes to humour, with ridiculous situations and the classic chaos among three friends trying to shake off the daily grind. The film, while being ridiculously funny, is heavily nostalgic and resorts to slapstick comedy.

In addition to this, “Bha.Bha.Ba” made an entry, which is a Malayalam comedy-thriller that combines satire with absurdity and offers a great alternative for those looking to watch something different, rather than the regular Hindi movies.
International Releases
The Indian OTT platforms still welcome the global storytelling. JioHotstar has “Ponies”, a spy thriller located in Moscow during the Cold War period, in its package. With its location, the plot of espionage and the complex characters, the viewer who enjoys slow-paced international thrillers is the targeted audience for the series.
