Although Monday might seem to be a rather odd day for the one of the most awaited Bollywood films to release, it’s probably good that Akshay Kumar’s Laxmii is steering clear of the overcrowded Diwali weekend. Almost every platform has a big release planned for November 12 or 13, so Laxmii releasing on November 9 gets a better chance at grabbing the viewers’ attention. The film couldn’t release in theatres because of the Covid-19 lockdown, and will drop on Disney+ Hotstar on Monday.
Keerthy Suresh’s latest release Miss India shows her as a middle class woman who moves to the US and tries to fulfill her dreams of becoming a successful entrepreneur. Here are more titles that you can check out on OTT platforms this week.
Laxmii (Disney+ Hotstar Premium)
The comedy horror film is a remake of the 2011 Tamil film Kanchana, the second film in the Muni film series by Raghava Lawrence. He is making his Hindi directorial debut with the remake, starring Akshay Kumar and Kiara Advani.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it will be released in cinemas in select overseas markets and will stream digitally on Disney+Hotstar on November 9.
