Tourist Family
The Story
Tourist Family (2025) is a Tamil drama that tells the heart-touching story of a Sri Lankan Tamil family forced to flee their homeland after the island’s post-COVID economic collapse. Dharmadas “Das”, his wife Vasanthi, and their two sons, Nithushan and Murali, leave behind everything they know and cross the sea to India with the help of Vasanthi’s brother, Prakash. They arrive in Rameswaram and settle in a small Chennai neighborhood called Kesava Nagar Colony, pretending to be Malayalees to avoid legal trouble. In this unfamiliar land, Das begins working as a driver while Vasanthi strives to keep their family safe and united. Gradually, they build a humble but meaningful life, forming bonds with their kind-hearted neighbors who each have their own struggles and stories. Just as things begin to look hopeful, a sudden bomb blast in Rameswaram sparks suspicion toward Sri Lankan immigrants, and the family’s fragile peace is shattered. The police, led by ACP Balwan Singh, start questioning their origins, while Das battles fear and the emotional distance growing between him and his elder son, Nithu. Amid this turmoil, Inspector Bhairavan, one of the investigating officers, begins to sympathize with the family’s situation and quietly helps them. When the authorities finally close in to expose them, the residents of Kesava Nagar stand in unity, speaking in the Sri Lankan Tamil dialect to confuse the police and protect their neighbors. In the end, the family finds acceptance and hope — not through documents or legal recognition, but through the compassion and solidarity of the community that chose love over prejudice. Tourist Family is a moving exploration of displacement, identity, and humanity, showing how kindness and empathy can transcend borders and heal even the deepest wounds.

Raid 2
Set several years after the events of the first film, Raid 2 picks up with fearless and principled tax officer Amay Patnaik, now transferred to the quiet desert town of Bhoj in Rajasthan after a long career of disrupting corruption. Assigned his 75th posting, Amay is tasked with a discreet but high-profile investigation into Manohar “Dada” Bhai (Riteish Deshmukh), a beloved political figure admired by the public but suspected of hiding vast illegal wealth. As Amay leads an extensive operation on Dada Bhai's sprawling assets, he surprisingly uncovers nothing—resulting in his immediate suspension. But Amay, known for his unshakable resolve, refuses to give up. With the help of his loyal team and the encouragement of his supportive wife Malini (Vaani Kapoor), he digs deeper into the truth. Eventually, an unexpected ally emerges: Dada Bhai’s own mother, who, after learning the real story, compels her son to face justice. The story closes with the quiet emergence of a new, mysterious figure named Rameshwar “Tauji” Singh, hinting at a more formidable adversary and a potential continuation of Amay’s mission for justice.

As Dr. Prabhat tries to revive not just the PHC but the very idea of credible healthcare, he finds himself entangled in red tape, social apathy, and a culture that views change with suspicion.

Final Destination: Bloodlines
Prepare for a chilling new chapter in the iconic horror franchise, as 'Final Destination: Bloodlines' (the working title for the anticipated sixth installment) promises to redefine the terrifying dance with fate. Stepping away from direct sequels, this film is billed as a "reimagining," breathing fresh, yet deadly, life into the beloved premise. At its core, 'Bloodlines' will plunge audiences back into the familiar nightmare: a seemingly ordinary individual experiences a vivid premonition of a catastrophic event, saving themselves and a handful of others from certain doom. But as fans know, cheating Death is merely delaying the inevitable. What follows is Death's meticulously orchestrated hunt, as it reclaims its intended victims through a series of increasingly elaborate, gruesome, and unavoidable "accidents." However, 'Bloodlines' is poised to introduce a sinister new layer. The subtitle itself hints at a deeper, more ancestral connection to Death's design. Rumors suggest the film will explore the lineage or inherited fates of its characters, implying that perhaps some are marked by a generational curse or a history of evading Death, making their eventual demise all the more inescapable. This thematic shift could add a profound psychological dimension, suggesting that fate isn't just about being in the wrong place at the wrong time, but perhaps about an inescapable legacy. Furthermore, early reports indicate a potential focus on first responders – a darkly ironic choice, as those dedicated to saving lives find themselves the prime targets of a relentless entity. This setting could provide fresh, terrifying scenarios for Death's intricate traps, exploiting the very tools and environments designed for rescue. With Jon Watts (known for his work on the *Spider-Man* trilogy) involved in the story and producing, and directed by the acclaimed duo Zach Lipovsky and Adam B. Stein, 'Bloodlines' is expected to deliver the franchise's signature blend of high-concept suspense and visceral, R-rated practical effects. While promising to maintain the inventive, Rube Goldberg-esque death sequences that fans crave, it also aims for a more character-driven narrative and a deeper exploration of the lore, ensuring both thrilling spectacle and genuine dread. 'Final Destination: Bloodlines' is set to be a terrifying, thought-provoking return to a world where death is not the end, but merely the beginning of the hunt, promising a fresh perspective on the inescapable power of fate.
