The Malayalam romantic drama Abhilasham made its theatrical debut on March 29, 2025, capturing hearts with its tender storytelling and emotional depth. Helmed by director Shamzu Zayba, the film enjoyed a warm reception from moviegoers and critics alike. Now, after its successful theatrical run, the film is preparing to enter the digital space, bringing the story to a broader audience. For those who couldn’t catch it in theaters, the wait is almost over — Abhilasham is soon arriving on streaming platforms.
When and Where You Can Watch It
Abhilasham is set to stream globally on Simply South starting May 23, 2025, with the exception of India. The announcement was made via the platform’s official account on X (formerly Twitter), where they posted, "#Abhilasham, streaming on Simply South from May 23 worldwide, excluding India." Meanwhile, Indian audiences will be able to enjoy the film on Amazon Prime Video, according to a report by OTTPlay.
Plot Overview: A Tale of Love, Regret, and Second Chances
The narrative centers around Abhilash, a man who has quietly loved Sherin Moosa for years. Though he never voiced his affection before she moved away, her sudden return to their hometown reignites emotions he thought were buried. The film gently unravels whether Abhilash will finally muster the courage to express what he’s held inside for so long.
The plot thickens when Sherin asks him to send ten bottles of a specific attar (a traditional perfume) from his store to a friend overseas. What begins as a simple favor unexpectedly lands Abhilash in a minor legal entanglement. His best friend, Navas Vallikkunnu — who also happens to be a lawyer — steps in. But rather than resolving the matter directly, Navas slyly adds fuel to the fire in hopes of bringing Abhilash and Sherin emotionally closer.
As their paths entwine once more, the narrative introduces Thaju, a pivotal supporting character who helps shape the direction of their rekindled relationship. Throughout the film, a series of twists, miscommunications, and heartfelt revelations gradually reshape the characters’ lives.
