New Prime Video Series This Week

Alpha: Men Love Vengeance (Apr 21, 2026) is another masterpiece of this week which is also available in Kannada / Telugu dubbed version. Many reviewers like us are calling it a regional dark horse from Prime. It’s a revenge thriller with male leads navigating a morally grey world, the kind of gritty regional content that Prime has been quietly building its South Indian library with. Early indicators suggest 3.8/5.

Prathichaya (Apr 24, Malayalam)   arey yaar, this is the one I’ve been circling all week with anticipation. A Malayalam thriller on JioHotstar? As someone who lives for Malayalam suspense cinema, the kind that makes you pause and rewind just to catch a detail you missed, Prathichaya looks like it carries that DNA. The title translates roughly to “Shadow” or “Reflection,” which already tells you the vibe. Predicted: 4.0/5 and climbing.
