    If you’re in the mood for a quirky mix of laughs and scares, Bakasura Restaurant might just be your next weekend watch. The Telugu horror comedy hit theatres on August 8, 2025, but unfortunately, it slipped under the radar at the box office. Despite the lukewarm reception, critics pointed out that Harsha Chemudu, who played the lead, delivered a performance worth noticing. Now, exactly a month later, the film has found a second life on streaming—and not on one, but two OTT platforms.

    OTT Platform

    Bakasura Restaurant is currently available on Amazon Prime Video as well as Sun NXT, giving audiences an easy chance to catch the film if they missed it in cinemas. Directed by S. J. Shiva, the movie revolves around a group of friends who set out to run their dream restaurant. Things take a bizarre turn when they realize that the place is haunted by evil spirits. What follows is a crazy chain of events as the friends scramble to deal with the supernatural chaos while trying to save their venture.


    The film stars Praveen, Harsha Chemudu, and Jai Krishna in key roles. Made on a tight budget, the project kept things simple but leaned heavily on its humor and wacky situations to keep the audience entertained. Adding to the vibe, Vikas Badisa composed the music, while Marthand K. Venkatesh took charge of the editing. Though its theatrical run was modest, the film’s OTT release may help it find the audience it missed the first time around.
    The movie's gross India collection was Rs 76 lakhs.
