Aniruddha Jatkar in and as Chef Chidambara
It's been practice for a while now that if a Kannada film makes it to a major OTTplatform post release, there's no announcement for the same and if you have not activated notifications from the streamer or are not actively searching for new content, chances are that you may not even know when something new drops. This week so far, there's been one original Kannada title and a major dubbed film, but there maybe another Kannada film in the coming days, as it is on the streamer already, but for overseas audiences.
Here's a look at Kannada movies you can stream on OTT this week.
