The film features Manoj Bajpayee alongside Nushrratt Bharuccha, Saqib Saleem, Divya Dutta, Kiku Sharda, Akshay Oberoi and Shraddha Das.
Gajab Raat marks Ritesh Shah’s directorial debut and continues Neeraj Pandey’s association with Netflix following projects such as Khakee, Sikandar Ka Muqaddar and Taskaree.
The official trailer has already been released ahead of the streaming premiere.
Dhoomakethu – Malayalam Movie Expected on Netflix
Dhoomakethu is another Malayalam film associated with Netflix’s October 2026 OTT release discussions, although its streaming date has not been officially confirmed in the available information.
The film is directed by Sudhi Maddison, known for his earlier Malayalam movie Neymar.
Starring Sajin Gopu and Nikhila Vimal, Dhoomakethu also features Shine Tom Chacko, Sidharth Bharathan and Ganapathi.
The film was released theatrically on 25 September 2026.
The screenplay is written by Sonny and Manu, while the production team includes Sameer Thahir, Shyju Khalid, Sajin Ali and Abbas Thirunavaya.
Jinto George handles cinematography, Vivek Harshan is the editor, and Ankit Menon has composed the music.
Reports and expectations have pointed towards 23 October 2026 as a possible Netflix release date. However, viewers should wait for an official streaming announcement before treating this date as confirmed.
The film is particularly relevant to Malayalam OTT audiences looking for new regional releases during the final weeks of October.
Avarachan & Sons – Biju Menon Leads Malayalam Ensemble Cast
Avarachan & Sons is an upcoming Malayalam film starring Biju Menon in the titular role of Avarachan.
The ensemble cast includes Sreenath Bhasi, Ganapathi, Grace Antony, Vinay Forrt and Johny Antony.
The film is directed by Thamby, with the screenplay written by Joseph Vijeesh and Thamby.
Listin Stephen produces the film, while Justin Stephen serves as co-producer.
Sajith Purushan handles cinematography, and Sanal Dev is responsible for the music.
The combination of Biju Menon and the supporting ensemble makes Avarachan & Sons a title of interest for Malayalam cinema audiences.
However, the available production details do not establish a confirmed Netflix acquisition or OTT release date. The film should therefore be treated as an upcoming Malayalam movie rather than a confirmed October Netflix premiere.
