For fans of police procedurals like Ratsasan or Mumbai Mafia , this film is a gem. Tovino Thomas plays a no-nonsense sub-inspector tasked with solving two challenging cases from the 1990s. The film’s strength lies in its realistic depiction of police work—no gravity-defying stunts, just fingerprinting, evidence gathering, and interrogation. The narrative is tight, and the 90s period recreation is authentic. While the first half focuses on a theft case, the second half delves into a chilling murder mystery. A solid, gripping watch for thriller enthusiasts. 5.

If you need a break from heavy thrillers, Premalu is the perfect antidote. Following the success of Super Sharanya , director Girish A.D. delivers a laugh riot set against the backdrop of Hyderabad’s tech scene. The film follows Sachin (Naslen), a lazy engineering graduate who dreams of moving to the UK but finds himself entangled in a hilarious, relatable romance with a smart, ambitious girl. The chemistry between the lead pair, the witty Gen-Z dialogue, and the situational comedy make this one of the most rewatchable films of the year. Pure fun. Great for a family or friends’ night out. 4.
