We watched Abdul Karim Telgi's story unfold back in September, when the first part of Scam 2003: The Telgi Story premiered on Sony LIV.

We discovered a bright talent in its lead actor Gagandev Riar.

The only complaint was that the Web series was not shown in one go.

Now, it's time to catch Part 2 of the series, and there are good expectations from Hansal Mehta's story.

The first season of Aarya arrived during the pandemic, and it made many sit up and take note.

Sushmita Sen's debut in the OTT space, directed by Ram Madhvani, really worked well with the audience.

'I find her to be very, very dangerous this season,' Sushmita says about her character, and we can't wait.

Apurva

In the times when movies are seeing a token release in theatres before arriving on OTT, it's refreshing to see Apurva opting for a digital premiere.

Tara Sutaria arrives in a never-seen-before avatar to play the titular role in this survival thriller.

While Abhishek Banerjee will be seen as a villain all over again after Paatal Lok, it will be nice to see Rajpal Yadav leave behind his comedy persona and step into a grungy avatar.
