Here’s a list of my fav movies of 2024, all available on OTT platforms. If you think I’ve missed a gem, it’s likely still on my watchlist - so please share your recommendations!

I’ve primarily explored movies from the Hindi, Malayalam, Telugu, Kannada, and Tamil industries. While I did check out a few Punjabi, Marathi and Gujarati films, they didn’t quite work for me. I have to admit, though, that I haven’t yet explored the best Bengali films of the year - the content from Bengali movies can be super and that’s definitely on my to-do list!

Below is the list:

Hindi

• Laapata Ladies

• Kill

• Stree 2

• Article 370

• Bhakshak

• Srikant

• Girls will be Girls

• Khel Khel Mein

• CTRL

• Do Aur Do Pyaar

• Madgoan Express - inconsistent, but fun

• Crew - inconsistent, but fun

• Teri Bahon Mein Aisa Uljha Raha - inconsistent, but fun

Malayalam

• Aattam

• Ullozhukku

• Manjummel Boys

• Aavesham

• Thalavan

• Kishkindha Kaandam

• Golam

Telugu

• Hanuman

• Tillu Square - if you are a fan of the first one

• Mathu Vadalara 2 - if you are a fan of the first one

• Kalki

Tamil

• Maharaja

• Vaazhai

• Lubber Pandhu

Kannada

• Blink

I have to say, for the second year in a row, the Malayalam film industry takes the crown for delivering some of the best movies of the year.
