Idhayam Murali: OTT Debut Date Revealed marks a significant addition to the streaming lineup on August 7, 2026. The coming-of-age romantic drama, starring Atharvaa, will premiere exclusively on Netflix. Directed and produced by Aakash Baskaran under the Dawn Pictures banner, the film also features Kayadu Lohar and Preity Mukhundhan, with Fahadh Faasil appearing in a special cameo. Fans can also watch the Telugu dubbed version, Hrudayam Murali, on the same platform.
The first week of August is packed with digital premieres across multiple platforms. On August 4, the Malayalam crime thriller Uyir, headlined by Roshan Mathew, arrives on JioHotstar. Directed by Rajesh Nair, the film will also be available in Telugu after receiving positive reviews for its gripping narrative. Following this, August 7 promises a heavy slate, including Akhil Akkineni’s action drama Lenin on ZEE5, which features Bhagyashri Borse and Jagapathi Babu in key roles.
Beyond Idhayam Murali, Netflix is set to release several high-profile titles on August 7.

With Idhayam Murali leading the romantic genre line-up, the week also brings family entertainment through The Super Mario Galaxy Movie on JioHotstar.
