Vismaya Mohanlal’s Debut ‘Thudakkam’ Heads to OTT – Streaming from Sep 18

After a modest but enthusiastic theatrical run, Vismaya Mohanlal’s first big‑screen outing, Thudakkam, is gearing up for its online debut. The movie will start streaming on JioHotstar on September 18, 2026, giving fans a chance to watch it from the comfort of their sofas.

Directed by Jude Anthany Joseph, the film blends high‑octane action with a dash of familial drama. The screenplay was a joint effort by Joseph, Akhil Krishna and Lineesh Nellikkal, and it showcases Vismaya in the role of Meenu – a character who, frankly, lets her daughter shine.

Opposite her is Ashish Jo Antony, the producer Antony Perumbavoor’s son, who steps into the antagonist’s shoes. Their on‑screen rivalry adds the kind of tension that keeps the pulse racing. Veteran actors Saikumar, Bobby Kurian and Manoj K. Jayan turn up in pivotal supporting parts, and there’s a sweet surprise cameo by Mohanlal himself, a wink that certainly didn’t go unnoticed.

The film originally hit theatres on August 7 and, despite the crowded release calendar, managed a respectable box‑office performance. Critics noted the fresh energy brought by the debutantes, while also praising Joseph’s crisp direction.

Now, with the OTT window opening, the movie is set to reach a wider audience. Whether you missed the cinema dates or just want a rewatch, September 18 will be the day to log into JioHotstar and dive back into the world of Thudakkam.
