Festive excitement and strong pre-release hype contributed to the buzz around releases like Lucky Baskhar, KA, Amaran, Bagheera, and Brother from South India, and Bollywood’s Singham Again and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3. Alongside their theatrical releases, the OTT streaming platforms for these films have also been confirmed:
- Lucky Baskhar: Netflix
- Amaran: Netflix
- KA: ETV Win
- Bagheera: Netflix
- Brother: Zee5
- Singham Again: Amazon Prime Video

Among the South Indian releases, Lucky Baskhar, Amaran, and KA have received a positive audience response, with Amaran standing out for its blockbuster potential, particularly due to its surprising performance in the Telugu market. Meanwhile, Bagheera and Brother have garnered lukewarm reviews, casting doubts on their box office success.
On the Bollywood side, Singham Again and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 have both captivated audiences and secured favorable reviews, positioning them well for long-term box office success.
