⁣Mahavatar Narsimha (2025) is a grand Indian 3D animated mythological film, part of the "Mahavatar Cinematic Universe," that retells the story of Lord Vishnu's Narasimha avatar, focusing on the unwavering devotion of Prahlada against his tyrannical father, Hiranyakashipu, leading to the divine, half-man/half-lion's appearance to restore cosmic balance. It's praised for its stunning visuals, epic scale, and heartfelt storytelling, bringing ancient epics to life with modern animation for a family-friendly spiritual experience.

⁣Maalik (2025) is a Hindi action-crime-drama starring Rajkummar Rao as a small-town man who rises to become a ruthless gangster in Allahabad's underworld, driven by ambition, revenge, and survival, exploring themes of power, loyalty, and betrayal amidst corruption and violence, though the story follows a predictable gangster formula. Rao's intense performance, alongside Manushi Chhillar and Prosenjit Chatterjee, is a highlight, but reviews note a familiar plot and uneven execution.
