What to Stream, Watch in Theatres, and Follow Live This Weekend On Netflix, JioHostar, Amazon Prime Video And More
Metro… In Dino
Where to watch: Theatres
Still believe in love in this economy? Metro… In Dino explores modern-day relationships across generations — breakups, makeup sex, and emotional armageddon in the big city. It’s that rare Bollywood film where people have feelings and furniture.
Jurassic World: Rebirth
Where to watch: Theatres
Apparently, the dinosaurs are still not done with us. This time, a covert team is sent to retrieve miracle dino-DNA from the OG Jurassic island. Naturally, it all goes to hell. Expect raptors, bad decisions, and a shocking conspiracy buried under prehistoric dirt.
Warfare
Where to watch: BookMyShow Stream
Alex Garland ditches surrealism for shrapnel in this relentless real-time Iraq war thriller. 95 minutes, one crumbling house in Ramadi, and enough sweat to drown a Navy SEAL. If you liked Black Hawk Down, this one hits harder — and faster.
Heads of State
Where to watch: Prime Video
John Cena and Idris Elba get shot out of Air Force One and land in an action-comedy fever dream. Throw in Priyanka Chopra as a deadly MI6 agent, and you've got the world’s most chaotic diplomatic trio since... well, ever.
The Old Guard 2
Where to watch: Netflix
Immortals, but make it existential. Charlize Theron’s Andy finally starts to age, just as Uma Thurman arrives swinging katanas and chaos. With flashbacks, betrayals, and secrets about the origin of immortality, it's the broodiest superhero movie of the summer.
Companion
Where to watch: JioHotstar
One couple. One cabin. One humanoid sex android with secrets. If Black Mirror and Ex Machina had an unsettling forest baby, it’d be Companion. Go in blind, leave paranoid.
The Sandman Season 2: Volume 1
Where to watch: Netflix
Neil Gaiman’s dreamy (and sometimes nightmarish) epic returns. This time, Morpheus must deal with his problematic siblings, his exes, and gods who won’t mind their business. Dragons, faeries, and moody cosmic angst await. Volume 2 drops July 24.
Thug Life
Where to watch: Netflix
Kamal Haasan. Mani Ratnam. A.R. Rahman. That’s the tweet. Thug Life is a Tamil gangster epic set in Delhi’s underworld, where betrayal runs deep and bloodlines run deeper. Haasan plays an ageing don facing a crumbling empire and his own sins.
Kaalidhar Laapata
Where to watch: Zee5
Abhishek Bachchan vanishes at the Kumbh Mela and ends up forming a beautiful, bucket list-fuelled bond with an orphaned eight-year-old. A surprisingly tender and soulful Hindi remake of KD, this one’s got heart, humour and a whole lot of humanity.
The Good Wife
Where to watch: JioHotstar
Priyamani stars in the Tamil version of the globally acclaimed legal drama. After her scandalous husband is arrested, she returns to lawyering, juggling kids, courtrooms, and personal chaos. Sharp, emotional and culturally grounded.
The Hunt: The Rajiv Gandhi Assassination Case
Where to watch: SonyLIV
Nagesh Kukunoor turns India’s most infamous political tragedy into a pulse-pounding 90-day investigation. Think Zero Dark Thirty meets Delhi Crime, with Amit Sial holding it down as the tenacious cop fighting politics, grief and bureaucracy.
Uppu Kappurambu
Where to watch: Prime Video
A graveyard runs out of space in a Telugu village in the ’90s. Enter Keerthy Suresh as a new panchayat head and Suhas as a wonderfully oddball caretaker. Equal parts satire, nostalgia and bureaucratic chaos — it’s the most fun you'll have watching funeral logistics.
India vs England, 2nd Test
Where to watch: JioHotstar
Expect bouncers, banter and Bazball as England tries to throw the kitchen sink (and the bat) at India.
Wimbledon 2025
Where to watch: JioHotstar
Strawberries, sweat, and Centre Court drama — it's week two of the world’s poshest tennis warzone.
PSG vs Bayern
Where to watch: DAZN
Mbappé vs. Musiala. Expect goals, flair, and zero defending.
Real Madrid vs Dortmund
Where to watch: DAZN
A rematch of high-stakes Champions League drama — just in time to ruin your sleep schedule.
Formula One: British Grand Prix
Where to watch: F1 App / Fancode
The home of speed and soggy chips. Silverstone is where legends are made, egos are broken and tyres fall apart. Max Verstappen, Lewis Hamilton and Lando Norris all want this one badly — and the weather’s probably going to make it messy.
