The official release was teased via manoramaMAX’s social media with the line: “Pattth | From June 6 | manoramaMAX. Written & Directed by Jithin Issac Thomas.”
Alappuzha Gymkhana (Streaming on SonyLIV – June 5, 2025)
Starring: Naslen
OTT Release Date: June 5, 2025
Platform: SonyLIV
Alappuzha Gymkhana, a film that previously enjoyed a successful theatrical run, is now arriving on SonyLIV. The movie tells a story filled with youthful energy and emotional resonance, making it a perfect weekend watch.
Highlights of Alappuzha Gymkhana:
- Set against the rich cultural tapestry of Kerala.
- Balances local flavor with universal emotional themes.

The film reflects on regional identity, friendships, and the social fabric of a changing Kerala, resonating with both young and older audiences.
Thudarum (Streaming on JioHotstar – Now Available)
Platform: JioHotstar
Status: Now Streaming
Thudarum brings a quieter, introspective tone to this week’s releases. Set in the tranquil hill town of Ranni, the story explores the intricacies of human relationships, resilience, and healing.
Why Thudarum Stands Out:
- Visually scenic with a strong connection to place and emotion.
- Themes of recovery, personal struggle, and transformation.
- Ideal for fans of deep character-driven narratives.
The film turns its setting into a character of its own, with the natural beauty of Ranni playing an integral role in shaping the emotional journeys of its protagonists.
