What to watch this weekend in the UAE: From Bhoot Bangla to BTS’ Arirang

BTS World Tour Arirang in Japan: Live Viewing
Miss the Tokyo leg of BTS’s historic world tour? Catch it live on the big screen this Saturday. Spanning 34 cities and 82 shows worldwide, the Arirang tour features a spectacular 360-degree in-the-round stage and marks the group’s first large-scale tour in four years.
The Super Mario Galaxy Movie
Already in cinemas and still very much worth catching, the follow-up to the 2023 billion-dollar hit is back with the same cast, the same filmmakers and a whole new galaxy to explore. A solid family outing.
Matka King — Amazon Prime Video
Set in 1960s Bombay, this crime thriller follows a cotton trader who uses his mathematical mind to build an illegal gambling empire, before the underworld and law enforcement close in. Vijay Varma leads and is absolutely in his element here.
Beef Season 2 — Netflix
Oscar Isaac and Charles Melton star in this darkly funny follow-up to the Emmy-winning series. This time, a parking dispute at a country club between a high-strung manager and a struggling employee spirals into full-scale psychological warfare, pulling in their families and colleagues along the way.
Dust Bunny — OSN+ / HBO Max
Mads Mikkelsen and Sigourney Weaver in a horror fantasy about an eight-year-old who hires a hitman to kill the monster living under her bed. It is as wonderfully strange as it sounds, and easily the most original watch of the weekend.
