Soori’s latest film Mandaadi was recently released in theatres and has received positive reviews while continuing its theatrical run. With the film attracting attention at the box office, interest has now shifted towards the Mandaadi OTT release date and streaming platform.
Netflix has secured the streaming rights for Mandaadi, and the film is expected to arrive on the platform in October 2026. However, Netflix has not officially revealed the streaming date yet. Viewers should therefore wait for the platform’s announcement before considering any circulated date as confirmed.
While waiting for Mandaadi to make its digital debut, several notable Soori films are already available across major OTT platforms.
From Porotta Soori to Lead Actor
Soori received his major breakthrough through Vennila Kabadi Kuzhu. A memorable comedy sequence involving him eating parottas became particularly popular and earned him the nickname “Porotta Soori.”
After establishing himself as one of Tamil cinema’s familiar comedy actors, Soori gradually moved towards more performance-oriented characters.
A significant change came when he played the main protagonist in Vetrimaaran’s period crime thriller Viduthalai Part 1. He subsequently returned for Viduthalai Part 2, further establishing this new phase of his career.
Soori has since appeared in prominent roles in films including Garudan, Kottukkaali, Maaman and Mandaadi. He is also part of Yezhu Kadal Yezhu Malai, alongside Nivin Pauly, which arrives in theatres on October 1, 2026.
| Soori Movie | OTT Platform | Key Details |
|---|---|---|
| Mandaadi | Netflix | Streaming rights secured; OTT date yet to be officially announced |
| Garudan | Prime Video | Soori plays Sokkan |
| Kottukkaali | Prime Video | Soori stars alongside Anna Ben |
| Maaman | ZEE5, also available on Prime Video | Written by Soori; directed by Prasanth Pandiyaraj |
Garudan on Prime Video
Garudan is available for streaming on Prime Video. Soori plays Sokkan, one of the central characters in the film.
Written and directed by R. S. Durai Senthilkumar, Garudan was jointly produced by Vetrimaaran and K. Kumar under Grass Root Film Company and Lark Studios.
The film stars Soori, M. Sasikumar and Unni Mukundan in the leading roles. The supporting cast includes Roshini Haripriyan, Sshivada, Revathi Sharma, Samuthirakani, Vadivukkarasi, R. V. Udayakumar and Mime Gopi.
The film represents an important phase in Soori’s transition towards lead and character-driven roles.
Kottukkaali on Prime Video
Another Soori film available on Prime Video is Kottukkaali.
Directed by P. S. Vinothraj and produced by Sivakarthikeyan Productions, the film stars Soori and Anna Ben, with the latter making her Tamil cinema debut.
The cast also includes Jawahar Sakthi, Poobalam Pragatheeswaran, Sai Abinaya and Mullaiyarasi, among others.
Kottukkaali offered Soori another performance-focused role and is currently available to stream through Prime Video.
Maaman on ZEE5 and Prime Video
Maaman is directed by Prasanth Pandiyaraj from a story written by Soori. The film was produced by K. Kumar under the banner of Lark Studios.
Soori leads the cast alongside Rajkiran, Aishwarya Lekshmi, Swasika, Bala Saravanan, Baba Bhaskar, Viji Chandrasekhar, Nikhila Sankar and Geetha Kailasam.
ZEE5 holds the exclusive streaming rights for Maaman. The film is now also available through Prime Video, giving viewers another option to watch it online.
When Will Mandaadi Stream on Netflix?
For viewers searching for the Mandaadi OTT release date, Netflix is the confirmed streaming destination. An October 2026 digital premiere is expected, but the platform has not announced the exact streaming date.
This distinction is important because an expected OTT window should not be presented as a confirmed release date until Netflix makes its official announcement.
Conclusion
Mandaadi continues Soori’s transition from popular comedy performer to an actor taking on substantial lead roles. From his breakthrough in Vennila Kabadi Kuzhu and the memorable “Porotta Soori” identity to Viduthalai, Garudan, Kottukkaali, Maaman and now Mandaadi, his filmography has entered a notably different phase.
While Mandaadi is expected to stream on Netflix in October 2026, the exact OTT release date remains unannounced. In the meantime, viewers can watch Garudan and Kottukkaali on Prime Video, while Maaman is available on ZEE5 and Prime Video.
