What if a man gets killed on his first night after marriage, only to come back to life and face the same deadly situation again and again? That is the interesting concept behind Malayalam film Dhumakethu, now streaming on Netflix in Telugu and other languages.

The film follows Kuttan, whose life turns into a strange time loop where the same day and dangerous events keep repeating. He must figure out why this is happening and uncover the mystery behind it.

Starring Sajin Gopu and Nikhila Vimal, the film mixes comedy, suspense and fantasy. If you enjoy unusual stories with a time-loop twist, Dhumakethu is worth adding to your OTT watchlist.
