Leonardo DiCaprio and Martin Scorsese's Native American crime epic, Killers of the Flower Moon, which received rave reviews, is all set to hit theaters in October. The Western drama has been adapted from David Grann’s best-selling 2017 book of the same name. Set in the 1920s, the movie centers on an FBI investigation in the Osage Nation in Oklahoma after people began dying and disappearing under mysterious circumstances.

In the movie, DiCaprio plays Ernest Burkhart, the nephew of cattleman William Hale (Robert De Niro).

Releasing on: October 20th.

Tiger Shroff's Ganapath: A Hero is Born was another big warning of why Bollywood needs to prioritise the quality of the content and what they are serving to the audience. Starring Tiger Shroff, Kriti Sanon, and Amitabh Bachchan, the movie with a hard-to-understand plot and weak screenplay earned the tag of the worst film of the year.

Netflix's Khufiya is one of the intriguing dramas that should be on your binge list. Helmed by ace director Vishal Bharadwaj, the film stars Tabu, Ali Fazal, and Wamiqa Gabbi in the lead roles. The thriller is based on Amar Bhushan's espionage novel Escape to Nowhere. 

In the film, Tabu plays the role of an undercover raw agent, Krishna Mehra, an R&AW operative, who is on a mission to find more in the team and unveil a big secret mission.

Releasing on: October 5.
