New Delhi [India], January 1: The OTT calendar wastes no time in 2026. On January 2, major platforms roll out a slate that feels deliberate rather than crowded. OTT releases at the start of the year signal a confident shift in how streaming platforms plan their content. The OTT releases January 2 2026 lineup mixes courtroom drama, international cinema, emotional romance, and sharp thrillers. This is not throwaway content dropped to fill a slot. This is strategy in plain sight. Think of it as a weekend buffet where nothing feels microwaved, rushed, or added just for numbers. These OTT releases…
Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], January 1: There are anime releases that feel like celebrations, and then there are releases that feel like emotional ambushes. Jujutsu Kaisen: Hidden Inventory / Premature Death falls firmly into the second category. This is not a victory lap. This is a carefully curated reminder that before the chaos, before the curses, before the fandom discourse spiralled into weekly therapy sessions, there was grief—quiet, formative, and devastating. With the compilation film officially heading to Indian theatres this January, the timing feels deliberate. Strategic, even. While audiences brace for what comes next in the franchise’s future, the makers…
New Delhi [India], January 1: Bicharo Bachelor is not just another movie. It’s a comedy-drama with a pulse on society’s expectations, family pressure, and awkward moments most of us pretend never happened. Scheduled to hit theatres on 2 January 2026, this film promises a blend of humour and feel-good storytelling that’s rooted in real life yet delivered with energetic flair. The title itself sounds like a wink. It says, “Yes, we know the chaos behind being single in a family that’s ready for weddings.” And the movie lives up to that tease. Cast and Characters Driving the Fun At the…
Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], January 1: There are films that announce themselves with thunder, and then there are films that walk in with legacy stitched into their spine. 45 belongs firmly to the latter category. It doesn’t scream novelty. It doesn’t pretend to reinvent the wheel. Instead, it leans heavily—and quite unapologetically—on something far more potent in Indian cinema: collective memory. Three formidable names. One title that feels less like a number and more like a statement. And a box office run that, after seven days, has sparked both applause and raised eyebrows. Let’s get into it—without worship, without dismissal. A…

New Delhi [India], January 1: New year optimism lasted exactly one session. Indian tobacco stocks fall after the government quietly rewired cigarette taxes and markets reacted, fast and without mercy. Indian tobacco stocks fall was the story traders could not ignore on Thursday. Screens lit up red. Orders thinned. And by mid-session, it was obvious this was not a mood swing. It was policy colliding with profit. The finance ministry late Wednesday notified a new excise duty on cigarettes, effective February 1. No drama. No long speech. Just numbers. And those numbers hurt. Market leader ITC slipped 4.4 percent. The…

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], December 31: There are films that arrive quietly. And then there are films that arrive already apologising for the noise around them. Ikkis belongs to neither category. It arrived mid-conversation, mid-controversy, and mid-collision—between creative stubbornness and an industry addicted to optics. At first glance, Ikkis looks like an unlikely headline-maker. It doesn’t come wrapped in franchise armour. It doesn’t promise scale-for-scale destruction. It doesn’t flirt with algorithmic heroism. And yet, it has found itself entangled in debates about casting exits, box office survival, artistic refusal, and the uncomfortable truth that sometimes, a filmmaker choosing “less” feels like…
