September has just begun, and if you’re a movie buff, you’re in for a real treat. From Rajinikanth’s much-hyped Coolie to the Kannada superhit From So, the coming weeks are packed with some of the most-awaited releases across major OTT platforms. Whether you love edge-of-the-seat thrillers, star-studded action dramas, or quirky comedies with a local flavor, there’s something fresh dropping for everyone this month.
Let’s walk you through the hottest new titles making their digital debuts on Netflix, Prime Video, ZEE5, and JioHotstar.
Kammattam (Malayalam) – ZEE5 – September 5
If you’re into gripping investigations and layered characters, Kammattam is going to be your pick. This Malayalam web series, which is currently available on ZEE5, is about Inspector Antonio George, who starts investigating what appears to be the normal death of a man named Samuel Umman. But events take a darker course than he could have imagined.
The story moves at a snail’s pace with linkages to Samuel’s worker, Francis, and moves into an array of spine-chilling revelations. With Sudev Nair, Jeo Baby, and Vivya Santh, this one is sure to have you glued to the screen with its suspenseful story. Malayalam cinema has already made its mark for tough-as-nails storytelling, and Kammattam seems to be adding another feather to that cap.
Ekka (Kannada) – ZEE5 – September 5
Kannada cinema fans have been waiting for this one. After much buzz and speculation about its OTT release date, Ekka, starring Yuva Rajkumar, is finally landing on ZEE5. Directed by Rohit Padaki, this film is being seen as Yuva’s solid entry into mainstream Kannada cinema.
Expect a mix of stylized action and drama, wrapped in slick filmmaking. The theatrical run generated curiosity, but it’s on OTT that Ekka could find a wider audience, especially with fans who missed it on the big screen.
Su From So (Kannada) – JioHotstar – September 5
If action and thrillers aren’t your thing, this one’s got you covered. Su From So, produced by Raj B Shetty, is a laugh riot that’s already making history as the highest-grossing Kannada movie of 2025.
The movie features Shaneel Gautham, Mime Ramadas, and Prakash Thuminad in offbeat roles that have resonated with viewers. The wait for its OTT release has been keenly anticipated by fans, and while the makers are yet to make an official announcement, all signs point to a September 5 premiere on JioHotstar.
So if you’re looking for something light, fun, and rooted in Kannada humor, Su From So is the perfect weekend binge.
Junior (Kannada-Telugu) – Amazon Prime Video
Another interesting release this month is Junior, a bilingual film starring Kireeti Reddy in his debut. Directed by Radhakrishna Reddy and starring Sreeleela, Genelia Deshmukh, and V. Ravichandran, this film had a checkered run at the box office. While the Kannada version made little impact, the Telugu version performed much better.
Now with Amazon Prime Video filling in, Junior gets the opportunity to reach out to audiences of all languages. It’s a youthful entertainer that blends action and romance, and the presence of seasoned stars alongside debutant Kireeti adds to the charm.
Coolie (Tamil) – Amazon Prime Video – September 11
One of the biggest OTT premieres of the month is undoubtedly Coolie, starring none other than Rajinikanth. Directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, the film had massive hype before its theatrical release. While the reviews were mixed, some critics pointed out weak writing; the movie is still a major crowd-puller simply because of its leading man.
The ensemble cast is another big draw. Nagarjuna and Soubin Shahir step into villainous roles, while Shruti Haasan and Sathyaraj add more star power. Starting September 11, Coolie will stream on Prime Video in multiple languages with subtitles, ensuring Rajini fans across the globe can join the fun.
Love him or not, a Rajinikanth release is always an event, and Coolie promises to continue that tradition on OTT.
Kannappa (Telugu) – Amazon Prime Video – September 4
If grandeur and mythology excite you, Kannappa is the title to watch. Starring Vishnu Manchu, the film is a mythological saga that blends devotion, sacrifice, and spirituality. The scale of this film is massive, and it has some of the biggest names attached: Mohanlal, Akshay Kumar, and Prabhas in pivotal roles.
Finally, there was confirmation of Kannappa’s release on Prime Video from September 4 onwards by Vishnu Manchu himself. The movie opened in a limited manner in theaters, but OTT could provide it with a broader platform among fans who appreciate epics rich in religion and culture.
Final Thoughts
The first half of September is shaping up to be a blockbuster period for OTT viewers across India. From Rajinikanth’s Coolie to Su From So’s quirky humor, and from intense thrillers like Kammattam to the grand spectacle of Kannappa, there’s something to match every mood.
So, grab your popcorn, mark your calendars, and clear up your watchlist because this September, your living room is going to feel like a multiplex.
