Hungama OTT ramps up 2025 slate with bold, binge-ready originals

MUMBAI: Hungama OTT has stepped firmly into the big league in 2025, strengthening its reputation as one of the fastest-growing Hindi-speaking streaming platforms. Backed by a steady stream of thrillers, crime sagas, psychological dramas and boundary-pushing narratives, the platform delivered a slate designed to keep audiences glued all year.

The year opened with Personal Trainer, a dark Mumbai-set thriller led by Tinaa Dattaa. It followed an affair gone wrong and a death that unravels a dangerous maze of betrayal. February brought Pati Patni Aur Padosan, a psychological crime drama where Yukti Kapoor’s character becomes dangerously obsessed with a mysterious neighbour.

March delivered two heavy hitters. Kab Kyun Aur Kahan explored a chain of brutal murders pulling the CBI into a high-profile investigation, while Khadaan, set in a mining village, blended folklore with crime as Aly Goni’s inspector probed a chilling family mystery.

April saw the return of Hasratein 2, the platform’s most-watched original, expanding its anthology of bold, emotional stories centred on women’s desires and inner conflicts. May’s Mona Ki Manohar Kahaniyan kept the tension high with Srishty Rode as a murder suspect spinning stories inside an interrogation room.

June doubled down on deception. Judwaa Jaal featured Monalisa in a gripping dual role, while Badass Begum put Divyaa Agarwal at the heart of a gritty rise-to-power drama set in Mumbai’s underworld.

In July, Rose Garden brought mystery and romance to a Punjabi village, and August’s Let’s Play Blind took viewers into the high-stakes world of elite gambling and revenge.

September’s Rishton Ka Chakravyuh traced the transformation of a timid housewife forced into danger, while October’s Yeh Hai Sanak served a heady mix of desire, rivalry and family secrets.

November’s Dirty Scams featured five standalone stories of cons helmed by bold female leads, and the year closed with Vinny Ki Kitaab, a December drama about a housewife whose accidental literary fame sparks a powerful personal reinvention.

With a line-up spanning small towns, big cities, shadowy secrets and sharp twists, Hungama OTT’s 2025 slate shows a platform eager to take risks and ready to claim its place in India’s crowded streaming arena.
