The weekend is here and so are some of the latest releases. We bring you a list of films and series that are streaming on various OTT platforms.

Sitaare Zameen Par (Hindi)
'Sitaare Zameen Par' follows Gulshan Arora, a short-tempered basketball coach whose life takes a sharp detour after a DUI lands him in court. As punishment, he’s forced to coach a team of kids with disabilities — a job he clearly doesn’t want. But as practices turn into real connections, the game slowly starts changing him too.
Available to rent on YouTube from August 1.

3BHK
'3BHK' tells the story of a middle-class family in Chennai chasing a simple dream — to own a home. Vasudevan (played by Sarathkumar), his wife Shanthi, and their children, Prabhu and Aarthi, move between rented houses while grappling with rising costs. With just one income and mounting sacrifices, the dream of a home remains just out of reach.
Streaming on Simply South from August 1.

Housefull 5 (Hindi)
When billionaire Ranjeet Dobriyal dies mid-cruise, three men claiming to be his son Jolly show up to claim the fortune.
