March came with its own kind of chaos big theatrical releases, endless chatter around box office numbers, and a flood of new content landing across platforms. And while films like Dhurandhar 2 may have dominated conversations and cinema plans, there were also a handful of stories that quietly arrived on OTT and deserve a spot on your screen.

So if you’ve been meaning to catch up but didn’t quite get around to it, this long weekend might just be the perfect excuse. From warm, character-led dramas to bold experiments and crowd-pleasers, here are a few March releases worth adding to your watchlist starting with one you really shouldn’t miss.

Jab Khuli Kitaab (ZEE5)

If there’s one film from March that deserves your time this long weekend, it’s Jab Khuli Kitaab. Produced by Applause Entertainment and presented in association with Shoestrap Films, the Saurabh Shukla directorial is adapted from his original play and carries a rare warmth and emotional honesty. With standout performances by Pankaj Kapur, Dimple Kapadia, and Aparshakti Khurana, the film explores relationships, generational truths, and the things we often leave unsaid. It’s intimate, witty, and quietly moving the kind of film that lingers with you long after it ends.
