Kani Kusruti Leads New Thriller Eyes on Sony LIV; Premiering Oct 9

A brand‑new Malayalam thriller, titled Eyes, is set to hit the streaming platform Sony LIV on Friday, October 9, 2026. The series tackles the unsettling themes of stalking, obsession and the fine line between affection and control, following the investigations of police officer Tina Sebastian.

In the lead role, Kani Kusruti portrays Tina Sebastian, a seasoned police officer whose professional duties bring her face‑to‑face with cases that blur personal and professional boundaries. As Tina delves deeper into each case, the investigations increasingly expose the darker aspects of fear, control and unwanted attention.

The supporting cast features Nikhila Vimal, Dev Mohan, Saniya Iyappan and Shruthi, each playing pivotal characters that help shape the narrative’s exploration of personal and behavioural dynamics within the police investigations.

Director Manu Ashokan, who has previously collaborated with the writer duo Bobby‑Sanjay on projects such as Uyare and Kaanekkaane, helms the series. The writing team includes Bobby‑Sanjay, with the story credited to Anjana Nayar. Production is handled by DreamKatcher.

According to Ashokan, Eyes treats stalking not merely as a crime but as a profound threat to personal safety, aiming to present the subject matter within a thriller framework while maintaining its seriousness.

With its premiere on Sony LIV, Eyes joins the platform’s growing catalogue of Malayalam originals, offering viewers a fresh, gripping look at the psychological toll of obsession and control. The series will be available for streaming from October 9, 2026, and can be accessed by all Sony LIV subscribers on the platform.
