If you are counting down to next week’s releases, Salaar and Dunki, or to the year-ender Kaatera and are looking for something to watch in the meantime, well, we have a few suggestions for you. There is no original Kannada content on OTT this week, as Tagaru Palya’s release is delayed and no new date has been announced. There are, however, a few Kannada-dubbed titles that may pique your interest.
Japan
Karthi’s Deepavali release, the action heist comedy Japan did not have a great theatrical outing and was panned widely. And yet, the film managed to seal a good OTT deal and began streaming exactly a month later. The Raju Murugan directorial also stars Anu Emmanuel, Sunil, Vijay Milton, Jithan Ramesh, among many others.

Koose Munisamy Veerappan – Unseen Veerappan Tapes
