Kerala Story 2: Viewership Surpasses Expectations on Zee5
6 May
Summary
- The Kerala Story 2 debuted on Zee5 with 2.3 million viewers.
- It ranked among India's most-watched OTT assets for its debut week.
- The film's performance exceeded Tehran's debut viewership on the platform.
The spiritual successor to a widely discussed film, The Kerala Story 2, has made its debut on Zee5 with a fresh ensemble cast. Ulka Gupta, Aditi Bhatia, and Aishwarya Ojha lead the new lineup in this digital release. The film's initial performance on the platform has shown promising results, indicating a sustained audience appetite for impactful social dramas.
In its first week of streaming, The Kerala Story 2 attracted 2.3 million viewers. This viewership figure placed it among the most-watched content on Indian OTT platforms during the week of April 27 to May 3, 2026, according to Ormax data. The film's debut viewership notably exceeded that of other releases on Zee5, such as Tehran, which had 1.7 million viewers.
The film's official synopsis describes three young women who choose love over tradition, only to face control and silence. Its performance on Zee5 marks a respectable start, though its long-term hold on the platform will be the true measure of its success. If positive word-of-mouth continues, crossing the 5 million viewership mark would represent a significant achievement.
