The most anticipated release this week is Varun Dhawan and Samantha Prabhu's Citadel: Honey Bunny – the Indian leg of the international spy universe franchise. The high-octane drama gives plenty of action sequences, thrill and chases.

The next big release is Anupam Kher's inspiring drama Vijay 69 on Netflix, which deals with the often-overlooked challenges of the elderly. We see Kher preparing for a challenging triathlon here.

Amongst the post-theatrical releases, Kareena Kapoor Khan's critically acclaimed thriller The Buckingham Murders and Jr. NTR's action flick Devara Part 1 are the main headliners. Both films are now available to stream on Netflix.

While the international front is quiet this week, early Christmas vibes come with Christina Milian's rom-com Meet Me Next Christmas, where she rushes through the town to meet a dashing guy whom she met earlier at an airport lounge in a concert.
