The OTT platforms have brought some fresh content this weekend for the audiences. While some are originals, there are few which have been released already in theatres. From action thrillers like ‘KGF Chapter 2’ on Amazon Prime Video to science fictional dramas like ‘Stranger Things 4’ on Netflix to a simple rural family drama ‘Nirmal Pathak Ki Wapsi’ on Sony LIV, here are some of the most talked-about releases on OTT for this week:

It's been six months since the Battle of Starcourt, which brought terror and destruction to Hawkins. Struggling with the aftermath, the group of friends are separated for the first time – and navigating the complexities of high school hasn't made things any easier. In this most vulnerable time, a new and horrifying supernatural threat surfaces, presenting a gruesome mystery that, if solved, might finally put an end to the horrors of the Upside Down. The previous three seasons have been massively successful on Netflix, and this season too has a great buzz right now. Audiences are waiting to see where the story goes next.

A cyber soldier who has lost everything puts his life on the line to serve his nation, willing to make the ultimate sacrifice. The film didn’t do well at all at the ticket windows. The makers are hoping that the film will do wonders on OTT.

Cast: Tiger Shroff, Tara Sutaria, Nawazuddin Siddiqui
Director: Ahmed Khan
Where To Watch: Amazon Prime Video
A vigilante is sent on a mission by the government to kill enemy troops. However, things go wrong when he's mistaken for the leader of the troops. The film, which promised to be a sequel in the spirit of the first film ‘Heropanti’, didn’t do well at the ticket windows. Despite Siddiqui’s performance having been praised a lot, the film didn’t get a good response from the audience. The makers hope to make the most of the OTT release of the film.
