Maaman Movie Ott Release Date
Maaman’s making waves again, and for those waiting to catch it from your living room, you don’t need to wait much longer. Zee5 confirmed on their socials that Maaman will start streaming from August 8, 2025. Finally, that long run in theaters is coming to a close, and people who missed the “family drama with feels” can stream it at home now.
@OTT_Trackers The tweet simply announces that the Tamil family drama "Maaman," starring Soori and Aishwarya Lekshmi, will start streaming on the OTT platform Zee5 from August 8, 2025.
@Bobby__Sri The tweet announces that the Tamil family drama "Maaman," featuring Soori and Aishwarya Lekshmi, will stream on Zee5 from August 8, 2025, and highlights that it will be available in untouched 4K quality with Dolby Atmos sound, promising a premium viewing experience.
Feels like everyone’s just counting down at this point, especially with folks spamming “At last!” in the comments. Guess a lot of people sat out the cinema crowds and waited for their couch instead. Not judging.
Theatre Release Date
So, for anyone who missed the big screen: Maaman’s theatrical premiere was on May 16, 2025. That gave it a solid traditional run—more than a month—before the streaming folks locked in their date. It’s been a minute since then, with the film pulling in that classic family crowd and all those social posts full of photos outside packed cinemas. Some fans on Twitter and Insta even posted their FDFS selfies, tagging the cast and gushing about how they could relate to the whole uncle-nephew drama.
There’s this Instagram post from @vijichandrasekhar, going “Laughter, emotions, and unforgettable moments — #Maaman hits theatres in just 7 days!” with a throwback to the weekend before its release.

I’ve seen more than one post where fans straight-up tagged @soorimuthuchamy and said Maaman uravai patri solla vaarthai illai (no words for the uncle’s bond).
Cast
The cast—yeah, let’s run through it, because this is one of those rare ensemble jobs that works. Soori does the heavy lifting as Inba; most reviews called his work raw, and, honestly, he did crack a few people up and make them tear up sometimes in the same scene.
Aishwarya Lekshmi’s role as Rekha (Inba’s wife) might get overlooked at first, but she balances out the plot—her Instagram keeps popping up with movie tags even months after release. Swasika is Girija, Inba’s sister, and Master Prageeth Sivan as Laddu, the nephew, kind of steals a few scenes. Rajkiran, Baba Bhaskar, Bala Saravanan, Viji Chandrasekhar—solid support all across.
