​This week's biggest OTT and theatrical releases to watch

This week's offerings include everything from high-octane spy thrillers to gritty courtroom dramas, whose storylines navigate themes of identity, justice, and redemption. Whether it's a rogue agent risking global peace, a haunted city hiding secrets of decades past, or a legacy-bound lawyer discovering the world's a vastly different place from his father's—these stories deftly blend the scale of cinema with emotional stakes. Get ready to be thrilled, entertained, and perhaps creeped out.

2/7

'War 2' (August 14)

In this film, Hrithik Roshan's character, Kabir, a rogue agent, becomes a global threat, forcing the Indian government to dispatch Vikram, an operative with a personal vendetta, played by Jr. NTR.

3/7

'Coolie' (August 14)

Rajinikanth plays Deva, a former daily wage labourer with a history of violence. He is drawn back to life in a corrupt port town in order to dismantle a gold smuggling operation. As he digs deeper into the operations he faces politics, power, betrayal, and some secrets of his own buried in the not-so-distant past in this dark tale of redemption.

4/7

'Saare Jahan Se Accha' (August 13)

In the 1970s, R&AW agent Vishnu Shankar (Pratik Gandhi) has stealthily infiltrated Pakistan posing as a native Pakistani citizen, sent to sabotage the country's nuclear program. Exploring enemy territory and looking to fake his own death, he goes head-to-head against ISI operative Murtaza Mallik in a psychological game of spy chess that will ultimately also challenge loyalty and unwavering resolve.

5/7

'Tehran' (August 14)

After a bombing in Delhi, ACP Rajeev Kumar, played by John Abraham, finds himself embroiled in a complex geopolitical situation spanning multiple cities like Tehran and Glasgow. With diplomatic efforts failing, he must race against the clock to expose a dangerous conspiracy while evading the authorities who are pursuing him internationally.

6/7

'Andhera' (August 14)

In this series, a haunted medical student, a missing girl, and a skeptical cop cross paths in the dark underbelly of Mumbai. As the supernatural elements begin to unravel their lives, the series explores the fear anchored in guilt, ambition, and broken secrets.

7/7

'Court Kacheri' (August 13)

The son of a legendary lawyer, Param Mathur, finds himself unwittingly entangled in the chaos of a district court. As he waves through bizarre cases and ethical quandaries, his ultimate choice comes down to abandoning his father's legacy or redefining his father's legacy on his own terms.
