The Diamond Heist (OTT)
Streaming from: 16 April
Platform: Netflix
Guy Ritchie swaps his usual fictional flair for a dose of documentary grit in The Diamond Heist, a gripping three-part series that revisits one of Britain’s boldest crimes. In the year 2000, a gang of blokes tried to smash their way into the Millennium Dome to swipe a diamond worth a whopping £200 million. Expect candid chats with the criminals themselves, sharply filmed reconstructions, and rare archival footage from the day London nearly lost its sparkle.
The Stolen Girl
Streaming from: 16 April
Platform: JioHotstar
Denise Gough stars as Elisa Blix, a high-flying private jet attendant whose world collapses when her daughter vanishes after a sleepover. Based on Alex Dahl’s novel Playdate, this psychological thriller is a taut rollercoaster of secrets and lies. Holliday Grainger is beguiling as Rebecca Walsh, the neighbour with a too-perfect home, while Jim Sturgess and Ambika Mod round out the cast in a story where trust is as elusive as the missing child.
Murmur (OTT)
Streaming from: 17 April
Platform: Lionsgate Play
Brace yourself for Tamil cinema’s chilling foray into the found-footage genre. Murmur follows four YouTubers on a ghost-hunting jaunt into the Javadhu Hills. Drawn by the legend of the Saptha Kannigal (seven cursed sisters), the gang soon find themselves in deep ectoplasmic trouble. With a heavy dose of local folklore and some brilliantly unsettling handheld camerawork, this one’s sure to make your skin crawl.
Ransom Canyon (OTT)
Streaming from: 17 April
Platform: Netflix
Saddle up for a sweeping saga of ranchers, romance, and rivalries in Ransom Canyon, set in the picturesque Texas Hill Country. Josh Duhamel is compelling as Staten Kirkland, a grief-stricken cowboy trying to keep to himself, until a certain Quinn O’Grady (played by Minka Kelly) waltzes back into town. Expect family feuds, long-buried secrets, and a fair bit of Southern-style smouldering.
Daveed (OTT)
Streaming from: 17 April
Platform: ZEE5
Antony Varghese delivers a knockout performance in Daveed, a Malayalam-language sports drama with heart. Ashiq Abu, a former boxer turned mall security guard, must confront his past when tasked with protecting a visiting Turkish boxing champ. Their tense camaraderie leads Ashiq back into the ring – and into the emotional storm that made him hang up his gloves in the first place.
Grand Tour (OTT)
Streaming from: 18 April
Platform: MUBI
Award-winning Portuguese director Miguel Gomes takes viewers on a lush cinematic journey across colonial Asia in Grand Tour. The year is 1917. British civil servant Edward, gripped by a sudden case of cold feet, flees on the eve of his wedding. His jilted bride Molly follows in hot pursuit. Equal parts period drama and romantic travelogue, the film offers a visually sumptuous meditation on longing, geography, and escape.
Khauf (OTT)
Streaming from: 18 April
Platform: Prime Video
Looking for a new horror series to binge with the lights on? Khauf has you covered – or uncovered, depending on how brave you are. Monika Panwar stars as Madhu, who moves into a hostel only to find it haunted by a sinister force. One knock at the door sets off a nightmarish chain of events. With a strong ensemble cast including Rajat Kapoor and Geetanjali Kulkarni, and a debutant creator at the helm, this series is both haunting and heartfelt.
Law & Order: Organized Crime – Season 5 (OTT)
Streaming from: 18 April
Platform: JioHotstar
Christopher Meloni returns as the brooding Elliot Stabler in this high-stakes fifth season. This time, he’s up against a vindictive crime family and a surge in high-tech terrorism. With a life-threatening car crash still looming large over his psyche, Stabler must navigate new threats while wrestling with old ghosts. Classic Law & Order intensity with a modern twist.
Logout (OTT)
Streaming from: 18 April
Platform: ZEE5
Social media obsession gets a dark twist in Logout, a cyber-thriller that hits a little too close to home. Babil Khan plays Pratyush, an influencer desperate to hit 10 million followers. But when he loses his phone – and, with it, his entire digital identity – the nightmare truly begins. Toss in a mysterious hacker, a mounting paranoia, and a spiralling mental state, and you’ve got a thriller that questions what we become when we log in too deep.
So there you have it — from missing children and cursed forests to colonial heartbreaks and influencer meltdowns, this week’s OTT line-up is a veritable buffet of binge-worthy brilliance. Pop the kettle on, get comfy, and let the streaming begin.
