It is unusual to see a female lead in Tamil cinema play an ethical hacker. It is rarer to see a heroine go against the cops—here, to prove the innocence of her father who gets caught in a crime quagmire.

For all these reasons, and a few more, November Story is surely a positive development in the Tamil OTT space.
Every episode begins with a black-and-white/sepia-tinted flashback before travelling forward in time where we meet Anuradha Ganesan (Tamannaah), her Alzheimer’s-affected crime-novelist father, Ganesan (GM Kumar), and a bunch of cops. The writers have woven in crime and cops seamlessly into the proceedings that it seems quite organic when Anuradha takes on the system to prove her father’s innocence in a murder case.
