 A fresh group of films is dominating the streaming conversation in India, with titles from Tamil, Telugu and Hindi cinema appearing prominently among the platform’s current trending movies. The latest list features a mix of comedy, family drama, mystery, action and romance, while one Tamil film has moved ahead of Ajay Devgn’s Dhamaal 4 to claim the top position.

Viswanath and Son takes the top spot

Tamil film Viswanath and Son is currently ranked No. 1 among the titles highlighted in the list. Suriya plays Sanjay Viswanath, a wealthy businessman whose mother wants him to marry so the family line can continue.

Instead of taking the conventional route, Sanjay becomes the father of a child through surrogacy. The unusual premise forms the basis of the film’s comedy-driven story and has helped it attract attention among streaming viewers.

Dhamaal 4 remains a strong performer

Ajay Devgn, Riteish Deshmukh and Arshad Warsi’s Dhamaal 4 occupies the second position. The comedy revolves around a search for hidden treasure and continues to feature among the titles drawing significant interest on the platform.

The film’s presence near the top of the ranking shows that established Bollywood franchises continue to find an audience after moving from theatres to streaming.

GDN and Gandhari hold the next spots

GDN is currently placed third. The R Madhavan-led film is inspired by the life of inventor and industrialist GD Naidu and explores his journey through a dramatic cinematic narrative.

Taapsee Pannu’s Gandhari is at No. 4. The film follows a mother determined to find her missing daughter, taking the story into an emotional and suspense-driven direction. It quickly attracted attention after arriving on the streaming service.

Korean Kanakaraju brings a fantasy twist

At No. 5 is the Telugu film Korean Kanakaraju. Its story centres on a man who becomes connected to the spirit of a Korean gangster, creating the unusual premise around which the film’s narrative unfolds.

The title offers a different combination of comedy and fantasy compared with several of the more conventional dramas in the current list.

Alia Bhatt and Sharvari’s Alpha at No. 6

Alpha, starring Alia Bhatt and Sharvari, holds the sixth position. While the film did not make as strong an impact at the box office as expected, its streaming performance has given it renewed visibility.

The story follows a young woman who is trained from childhood in activities described as being against the interests of the country, placing the character in an action-oriented setting.

Cocktail 2 continues its streaming run

Cocktail 2, featuring Shahid Kapoor, Rashmika Mandanna and Kriti Sanon, is ranked seventh. The film centres on a complicated romantic triangle in which the three central characters develop feelings for one another.

After its theatrical run, the movie has continued to attract viewers on streaming, keeping it among the more watched titles in the current selection.

Mystery, comedy and family drama complete the list

Newton’s Third Law is at No. 8 and revolves around a mystery connected to a double murder in the 1990s. The Telugu film combines investigation and suspense as the story gradually reveals details surrounding the case.

At No. 9, Pyaar Prema Kalyanam follows a couple whose relationship takes an unexpected turn after the bride runs away from her wedding because she does not want to leave her parental home. The groom eventually becomes a live-in son-in-law, providing the central comic premise.

Gatta Kusthi 2 rounds out the top 10. The sequel builds on the earlier film’s wrestling backdrop and focuses on the contrasting lives of a wrestler wife and her husband, who stays at home.
