Second Case of Seetharam OTT Release Date: Second Case of Seetharam (also known as Second Case of Seetharam Benoy) is a 2026 Indian Kannada-language crime thriller film directed by Devi Prasad Shetty and produced under Flying Elephant Story Tellers. The film stars Vijay Raghavendra reprising his role as Inspector Seetharam, alongside Gopal Krishna Deshpande, Usha Bhandari, and others in supporting roles.
This sequel continues the investigative universe from Seetharam Benoy: Case No 18 (2021) and Case of Kondana (2024), delivering a restrained, slow-burn thriller. It follows Inspector Seetharam as he tracks a brutal, psychotic serial killer terrorizing the fictional small town of Anegadde, while dealing with personal struggles and attempting to reconnect with his long-lost sister. The narrative blends suspense, psychological depth, layered mystery, moral complexity, and emotional undercurrents, focusing on substance over flashy style, with strong character work and investigative tension.
Principal photography captured a lush green small-town backdrop and atmospheric tension with focused performances. The film features mid-budget production values emphasizing story and realism. Second Case of Seetharam was theatrically released on 20 February 2026, receiving positive reviews: praised for Vijay Raghavendra’s quiet intensity and control, engaging slow-burn pacing, psychological elements, layered investigation, and overall improvement over the original in substance and execution, though some noted bumpy starts or pacing challenges. Commercially, it had a modest theatrical run (steady but not blockbuster collections amid competition), with strong word-of-mouth in thriller circles and regional appeal (including Tamil dubbed shows).
