Srikakulam Sherlock Holmes out on OTT: Where to watch the Vennela Kishore film

Srikakulam Sherlock Holmes is a Telugu comedy featuring Vennela Kishore in the lead role. The film, a comedy caper, was released on December 25, 2025, but disappeared from theaters shortly after its debut. Before its release, the film made headlines when the makers accused lead actor Vennela Kishore of not participating in promotional activities. Unfortunately, the film opened to poor word-of-mouth reviews and flopped at the box office.

Srikakulam Sherlock Holmes OTT platform details

As previously reported by OTTplay, the OTT rights for Srikakulam Sherlock Holmes were acquired by ETV Win for a substantial price. The film began streaming on ETV Win on January 24, 2025, making its OTT debut within a month of its theatrical release. Thanks to the OTT deal, the makers managed to recover their investment and avoid financial losses.

Ananya Nagalla played the female lead and received considerable praise for her performance. Over the past year, she has been taking on some interesting projects, and her role in Srikakulam Sherlock Holmes marked another step forward in her career. Vennela Kishore, meanwhile, portrayed a small-time detective tasked with solving the case of missing women in his town. The story revolves around how this local detective cracks a high-profile case, serving as the film’s central premise.

Srikakulam Sherlock Holmes cast and crew details

The movie was produced by Vennapusa Ramana Reddy under the Sri Ganapathi Cinemas banner and featured an ensemble cast including Siya Gautam, Sneha Gupta, Ravi Teja Mahadasyam, Prabhakar, and Muralidhar Goud in significant roles. While the comedy generated by Vennela Kishore in a Srikakulam accent was appreciated, the weak narration and poorly executed twists and turns hindered the film’s overall impact.

The film’s music was composed by Sunil Kashyap, and it was produced on a modest budget. Despite being one of the busiest actors in Telugu cinema, Vennela Kishore is still searching for a major success to solidify his lead-actor credentials. He had high expectations for this film, but its failure has left him in the spotlight for the wrong reasons.

It remains to be seen how Srikakulam Sherlock Holmes will perform on OTT platforms in the coming days. Stay tuned for more updates.
