After a busy week of OTT releases, including Joju George's Pani, Aashiq Abu's Rifle Club, Arjun Ashokan's Anand Sreebala, and Naslen's I Am Kathalan, the third week of January 2025 appears relatively quiet in terms of new Malayalam streaming content.
However, fans need not be disappointed, as Mohanlal's directorial debut Barroz will begin streaming on OTT less than a month after its theatrical release. Additionally, in theatres, Mammootty's new movie Dominic and the Ladies' Purse, directed by Gautham Vasudev Menon, is set to hit the screens. Here's the full list of new Malayalam OTT and theatre releases for the week.

Barroz

Mohanlal's high-budget directorial debut, a children's fantasy, did not fare well at the box office. The film, which tells the story of an ancient treasure guardian awaiting the rightful heir's return, will now hope for a better reception on OTT. Mohanlal stars as the titular 400-year-old treasure guardian, who, alongside his sidekick Voodoo, is bound to protect the gold of his Portuguese lord until a teenager arrives to claim it.
