What to Watch: October 2nd Long Weekend

 Hello, hello,

I hope your long weekend has gotten off to a great start! 

After a busy week, mine has been slow and lazy, exactly as I wanted it to be! 

In case you are planning to be home this long weekend, here are a few series and movie recommendations for you! 



1. Destined With You is a Korean series that is a romance but with elements like reincarnation, mystery and magic. It is funny and sweet and totally worth bingeing this weekend. Streaming on Netflix.

2. Wilderness is a suspense/ thriller domestic drama about a woman, who decides to kill her cheating husband during a road trip through the US West Coast National Parks. It is gripping and worth watching. Streaming on Prime Video. 

3. Athidhi (The Guest) is a Telugu (dubbed in 7 languages) horror/ suspense series about a man living with his wife in a beautiful home when random strangers start showing up on a stormy night. Streaming on Disney+ Hotstar. 

4. No Hard Feelings is a comedy movie about super helicopter parents hiring a woman to date their shy, nerdy, awkward son. Hilarity ensues when 32 year old Maddie starts dating 19 year old Percy. Streaming on Netflix. 

5. Love at First Sight is the movie adaptation of a beloved romance novel by Jennifer E. Smith. A boy and a girl meet on a flight and immediately fall for each other. When they are separated at Heathrow, will they meet again? Streaming on Netflix. 

6. Talk to Me is a horror movie, which is quite fast-paced and scary (in parts). When a group of teenagers use an embalmed hand to summon spirits, little do they know of the consequences of their dumb actions. Can be rented on Prime Video.

7. The Wonderful life of Henry Sugar is a quirky and heartwarming story of a wealthy man's quest to learn how to cheat at cards and what happens when he is finally successful. Streaming on Netflix. 

8. Blue Beetle is a fun enough superhero movie from DC Comics. It is the first Latinx/ Mexican superhero and the entire cast and is a fun little movie. Streaming on Prime Video. 

9. Scam 2003: The Telgi Story is a wonderful web series made on the stamp paper scam of 2003. If you've wondered (like me) what that scam was all about, then do watch this show. Streaming on SonyLiv. 

10. Sad Cypress is an adaptation of Agatha Christie's novel and is just so, so good! It is streaming on SonyLiv. 


Have a great weekend, guys! I am hoping it is a rainy one here in Mumbai!
