<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="bsf_rt_marker"></div><p><span data-contrast="none">We’ve all been there. It’s family movie night, everyone’s settled in on the couch, snacks are ready… and yet, 45 minutes later, you’re still scrolling through endless options trying to find the one movie everyone can agree on.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335557856":16777215,"335559738":0,"335559739":0}"> </span></p>
<p><span data-contrast="none">That’s where <a href="https://www.zee5.com/movies/details/devils-double-next-level/0-0-1z5769029">Devil’s Double: Next Level</a> (aka DD Next Level) swoops in like a cinematic superhero.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335557856":16777215,"335559738":0,"335559739":0}"> </span></p>
<p><span data-contrast="none">This horror comedy from Santhanam is the kind of film that doesn’t just tick one box it nails them all. From clever storytelling and laugh-out-loud moments to eerie twists and heartfelt <a href="https://www.zee5.com/global/blog/10-emotional-family-drama-movies-you-cant-miss/">family drama</a>, DD Next Level is the full package. Here’s why it deserves a top spot on your watchlist:</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335557856":16777215,"335559738":0,"335559739":0}"> </span></p>
<h2>A Plot That Hooks You In</h2>
<p><span data-contrast="none">Meet Krishnamoorthy ‘Kissa’, a brutally honest YouTube film critic who ends up getting way more than he bargained for when he attends a mysterious premiere of a horror movie. He quickly realizes the private screening is too private he’s the only one in the theatre.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335557856":16777215,"335559738":0,"335559739":0}"> </span></p>
<p><span data-contrast="none">Things only get weirder when he finds out his family was at the same screening and now, somehow, they’re trapped inside the movie. The only way to save them? Kissa must write the rest of the story himself. Talk about high-stakes scriptwriting!</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335557856":16777215,"335559738":0,"335559739":0}"> </span></p>
<p><span data-contrast="none">It’s a wild ride from there one part ghost story, one part satirical comedy, and all parts entertaining.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335557856":16777215,"335559738":0,"335559739":0}"> </span></p>
<h2><b><span data-contrast="none">Santhanam, As You’ve Never Seen Him Before</span></b><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335557856":16777215,"335559738":0,"335559739":0}"> </span></h2>
<p><span data-contrast="none">For years, <a href="https://www.zee5.com/celebs/santhanam/filmography">Santhanam</a> was everyone’s favourite sidekick. Now, he’s commanding centre stage, and he owns it. His comic timing is as sharp as ever, and he brings a relatability to Kissa that grounds even the most bizarre moments.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335557856":16777215,"335559738":0,"335559739":0}"> </span></p>
<p><span data-contrast="none">From panicking about cursed ships to cracking jokes while dodging ghosts, Santhanam makes every scene pop. This isn’t just another horror comedy it’s a Santhanam horror-comedy. And that makes all the difference.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335557856":16777215,"335559738":0,"335559739":0}"> </span></p>
<h2><b><span data-contrast="none">A Cast Packed with Icons</span></b><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335557856":16777215,"335559738":0,"335559739":0}"> </span></h2>
<p><span data-contrast="none">DD Next Level doesn’t stop at one standout performance. The supporting cast is a dream team <a href="https://www.zee5.com/celebs/gautham-vasudev-menon/filmography">Gautham Vasudev Menon</a>, <a href="https://www.zee5.com/celebs/selvaraghavan/filmography">Selvaraghavan</a>, <a href="https://www.zee5.com/celebs/nizhalgal-ravi/filmography">Nizhalgal Ravi</a>, and <a href="https://www.zee5.com/celebs/kasthuri-shankar/filmography">Kasthuri Shankar</a>, to name a few.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335557856":16777215,"335559738":0,"335559739":0}"> </span></p>
<p><span data-contrast="none">Bonus: Some of them pull double duty in dual roles, which means you’re in for twice the fun and drama.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335557856":16777215,"335559738":0,"335559739":0}"> </span></p>
<h2><b><span data-contrast="none">Horror Meets Hilarity and a Bit of Heart</span></b><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335557856":16777215,"335559738":0,"335559739":0}"> </span></h2>
<p><span data-contrast="none">What sets DD Next Level apart from typical horror-comedies is how well it blends genres. It’s spooky, sure but it’s also funny, clever, and surprisingly emotional. At its core, the film is about family, survival, and rewriting your own story.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335557856":16777215,"335559738":0,"335559739":0}"> </span></p>
<p><span data-contrast="none">The meta twist of a film critic being sucked into a film he once bashed? That’s pure genius.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335557856":16777215,"335559738":0,"335559739":0}"> </span></p>
<h2><b><span data-contrast="none">Jokes That Land, Even When the Ghosts Don’t</span></b><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335557856":16777215,"335559738":0,"335559739":0}"> </span></h2>
<p><span data-contrast="none">Even when the hauntings get intense, the punchlines never stop. Santhanam’s trademark wit keeps the laughs coming and might just be his only weapon against the supernatural forces chasing him.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335557856":16777215,"335559738":0,"335559739":0}"> </span></p>
<h2><b><span data-contrast="none">Eye-Candy You Didn’t Expect</span></b><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335557856":16777215,"335559738":0,"335559739":0}"> </span></h2>
<p><span data-contrast="none">If you’re tired of low-effort <a href="https://www.zee5.com/movies/genre/horror">horror</a> effects, DD Next Level is a welcome surprise. Thanks to Bharath Vikraman’s slick editing and AR Mohan’s detailed art direction, the visuals are immersive and eerie without being overdone.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335557856":16777215,"335559738":0,"335559739":0}"> </span></p>
<p><span data-contrast="none">Yes, it’s set on a haunted ship. Yes, it still looks good.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335557856":16777215,"335559738":0,"335559739":0}"> </span></p>
<h2><b><span data-contrast="none">A Few Missed Notes, But Nothing Major</span></b><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335557856":16777215,"335559738":0,"335559739":0}"> </span></h2>
<p><span data-contrast="none">The only thing that doesn’t quite stick? The soundtrack. One track was lost to controversy, and the rest doesn’t linger after the credits roll. But hey, when the film gives you this much else to enjoy, you won’t mind too much.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335557856":16777215,"335559738":0,"335559739":0}"> </span></p>
<h2><b><span data-contrast="none">Now Streaming on ZEE5 – A New Era of Local Storytelling</span></b><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335557856":16777215,"335559738":0,"335559739":0}"> </span></h2>
<p><span data-contrast="none">After a successful theatrical run across Tamil Nadu and neighbouring states, Devil’s Double: Next Level is making its OTT debut on ZEE5, June 13th, <a href="https://www.zee5.com/movies/year/2025">2025</a>.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335557856":16777215,"335559738":0,"335559739":0}"> </span></p>
<p><span data-contrast="none">And it’s not just any release—this film marks one of the first drops under ZEE5’s bold new identity: “My Language. My Stories.” It’s a reminder that the most powerful stories are the ones that speak your language—especially when you’re laughing, scared, or deeply moved.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335557856":16777215,"335559738":0,"335559739":0}"> </span></p>
<p><b><span data-contrast="none">Final Verdict: Watch It With the Whole Family</span></b><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335557856":16777215,"335559738":0,"335559739":0}"> </span></p>

It’s quirky, it’s clever, and it brings the whole family together which, let’s face it, is the real win on any movie night.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335557856":16777215,"335559738":0,"335559739":0}"> </span></p>
<p><span data-contrast="none">So what are you waiting for? Grab your popcorn, round up the fam, and head over to ZEE5.
