OTT Round Up - Dhamaka, Your Honour 2, Matsya Kaand Bring On Drama And Thrills, Chhorii (Horror), Hiccups And Hookups (Saucy) And Illegal 2 (Drama) Bring On Variety Next Week

This is proving to be an extended boon for the big screen as well as the small screen for the public this holiday season. While Sooryavanshi is doing some box office blockbuster business as well, and Bunty Aur Babli 2 has hit theaters as well, a lot is going on in digital media as well. While Dhamaka was the big OTT original to be released, Your Honor 2 and Matsya Kaand are major web series that have arrived while bringing drama and thrills.

Dhamaka is the only original Indian film to have been shot in recent years with a big star. Kartik Aaryan gave it the green light last year and shot it for director Ram Madhvani during the pandemic. What’s surprising is seeing high production values ​​from this Netflix release that boasts of a world-class. It is also a magnificent entry for the talented star actor on the international stage because all of a sudden he has managed to reach a much wider audience which is not limited to Indians or the Indian diaspora. A very good movie.

As for Your Honor 2, it turned out to be a worthy sequel to the first season that was skillfully put together by director E. Niwas. Jimmy Sheirgill, as a lead judge, again did very well in this revenge drama which saw a worthy inclusion of Gulshan Grover and Mahie Gill in the narrative. Set in Punjab with characters from UP / Bihar as well, Your Honor adds to the variety that Applause Entertainment continues to bring to viewers in rapid succession. Just a few days ago they brought in Call My Agent and now it’s it.

On the other hand, for those who like their drama to be in the line of pulp fiction aimed at the gentry, there is Matsya Kaand. At the helm of the business is Ajay Bhuyan, who has been on the scene for about ten years and has made numerous web series and films in different languages. This time, he’s tackling the middle of North India and, along with Ravi Dubey and Ravi Kishan, weaves a tale that moves forward at a rapid pace. Released on MX Player, Matsya Kaand is a long web series that has several characters contributing their motivations and intentions.

Coming soon

The coming week promises to be very exciting as there is a lot of variety in store. There is a movie and a few web series coming up, and all of them are in a different genre. While Chhorii is a horror drama, Hiccups And Hookups is a naughty and naughty show. However, before the two arrive Illegal 2 is an intense legal drama in the offering.

Let’s talk about Chhorii first. This is the fourth consecutive female-centric production from producer Vikram Malhotra of Abunandtia Entertainment. If last year he brought in Shakuntala Devi and Durgavati, this year he already released Sherni and now it’s time for Chhorii. After Vidya Balan and Bhumi Pednekar, he brought in Nushrat Bharucha, and rest assured the actress would be seen in a whole new avatar compared to the rom-com roles she played in her latest hits.

Hiccups And Hookups are special for Lara Dutta as this is her third OTT release. Last year she directed Hundred, a comedy in which she played a cop, and this year she had a role to play in one of the main episodes of Call My Agent where she played herself. In Hiccups And Hookups, she stars as the mother of a teenage girl who gains dating advice from her and Prateik Babbar, and in the process goes through quite a bit of “hiccups and hookups.” Directed by Kunal Kohli, this daring comedy is also special as it marks Lionsgate Play’s entry into the Indian OTT arena.

Meanwhile, the second season of the legal drama Illegal is also coming. The first season had marked the spirits when it was released on Voot and driven by its success, the second season was ordered immediately. This time around, Neha Sharma returns as “The Mad Advocate” and once again fights in the arena with Piyush Mishra. There are recurring characters in the form of Akshay Oberoi and Satyajit Mishra, with Tanuj Virwani already seen in four web series this year. Director Ashwini Chaudhary makes his debut in the OTT arena.
