1. Thudarum

  • Cast: Mohanlal, Shobana, Binu Pappu, Prakash Varma
  • Release date: May 30, 2025

If you enjoy Malayalam crime thrillers, I recommend you check out Thudarum. This captivating series follows the life of Shanmugham, more commonly known as Benz. Previously a fearless stuntman in films, he departed the industry following a heart-wrenching on-set accident that claimed the life of his dear friend Anbu. Now, he lives tranquil days driving a taxi, sharing his existence with his wife, their beloved children, and his cherished vehicle.

Initially, Benz’s life was peaceful, but everything changed drastically when his car was confiscated as part of an illicit trading investigation. Unaware of the situation, the authorities had secretly placed a deceased body within his vehicle, compelling him to assist in its disposal. A more devastating revelation surfaces later – Benz finds out that the lifeless body was none other than his long-lost son. The harsh reality sinks in: the police had murdered his child and pinned the crime on him as a means to conceal their actions. Overwhelmed with grief and anger, Benz resolves to battle for justice and clear his name.

2. Tourist Family

To steer clear of complications, they opt to hide their Sri Lankan background and present themselves as Malayalees instead, aiming to fit in seamlessly. At first, they were apprehensive, but soon they found themselves drawing nearer to their new community. Despite being advised to remain low-key, their friendly disposition led to the formation of new friendships and unforeseen connections.
