If you can relate to this struggle, then we're here for you. We have curated the perfect watchlist for you, whether you're a fan of laugh-out-loud comedies, edge-of-your-seat thrillers, or the good old drama overdose. From Varun Dhawan and Samantha Ruth Prabhu's spy-action drama Citadel: Honey Bunny to  Alia Bhatt’s Jigra, and Joker: Folie à Deux, here's everything to add to your binge-watchlist. 

Citadel: Honey Bunny

Varun Dhawan and Samantha Ruth Prabhu will star together in an electrifying spy-action series and spin-off to the American show Citadel.

Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3

The OG Manjulika is returning to the world of Bhool Bhulaiyaa once again! This highly anticipated third instalment is written and directed by Anees Bazmee, with Kartik Aaryan reprising his role as Rooh Baba while Triptii Dimri welcomes the exceptional Vidya Balan on board. Watch out! We bet that with Vidya involved, you might want to leave the lights on and prepare yourself for some extra chills.

Jigra

Written and directed by Vasan Bala, this one stars the most unpredictable duo—Alia Bhatt and Vedang Raina—as siblings. Oh, there’s also a collaboration between Diljit Dosanjh and Alia (you know it, don’t you?). The story: How their lives turn upside down when Vedang is wrongfully arrested and Alia takes it upon herself to ensure his release. Alia is co-producing the film with Dharma Productions.

Joker: Folie à Deux

Buckle up for Joker: Folie à Deux; a sequel that is bound to take the craziness up a notch as Joaquin Phoenix’s Joker collides with Lady Gaga’s Harley Quinn in complete chaos. Directed by Tod Philips, this mind-blowing ride through Gotham’s darkest corners is where love and insanity mix in explosive ways. With its twisted series of events and electric performances, Folie à Deux is set to be the wildest, most unforgettable cinematic trip you’ll take this year.

Venom: The Last Dance 

October 25, In theatres 

Directed by Andy Serkis, this sequel cranks up intensity as Eddie Brock battles against a formidable new adversary. While Venom faces off against a powerful rival, the stakes are higher than ever, pushing both the symbiote and the host to their limits. Prepare for a pulse-pounding ride with breathtaking action sequences and intense drama.

CTRL 

On Netflix 

Following the success of Kho Gaye Hum Kahan (2023), Ananya Panday returns to Netflix with CTRL. This time, however, it’s not just drama—director Vikramaditya Motwane has mixed it with thrill with a star cast including Vihaan Samat. The film explores the provocative question of whether our digital access controls us or the other way around.
