The much-awaited psychological thriller ‘Accused’ is all set to release on digital platforms this month, bringing with it a thrilling and complex story for audiences across the country. Starring Konkona Sen Sharma, the movie explores the subtle intersection of reputation, power, and how the public shortlists judgment in the age of instant reactions.
‘Accused’ will be released on Netflix on February 27, 2026. Netflix announced the release date along with the official poster and teaser, which seems to be chock-full of uncertainty and moral ambiguity.
The first looks have a tone that is more unsettling than flashy or aggressive. The teaser trailer captures the quiet tension of how easily people come to conclusions and how harmful accusations can be, even if they are false.

In the film, Sen Sharma takes on the character of Dr Geetika, a celebrated gynaecologist who is not only the best in her line but also the youngest head of department in a large hospital. She has an unblemished record and is considered a trailblaser, especially since she is an openly LGBTQIA+ professional who aspires to be the next dean of the organisation.
However, trouble comes knocking in no time. There are anonymous complaints against her, claiming that she is a sexual predator. While investigations are ongoing and the hospital board is under pressure, Dr Geetika’s accomplishments are reduced to mere rumours and speculations.
The film will not give you any simplistic solutions. It will examine how quickly narratives are constructed and solidified, thanks to institutional politics and social prejudices. It will also explore the personal cost of such accusations.

‘Accused’ is written and directed by Anubhuti Kashyap, with writing credits shared by Sima Agarwal and Yash Keswani. The creative team has described the film as an exploration of power, perception and moral ambiguity. They aim to tell the story with restraint, allowing viewers to sit with discomfort rather than guiding them towards a neat conclusion.
As its release date approaches, Accused stands out as one of the more thought-provoking OTT premieres of the season — a psychological thriller that promises not just suspense, but reflection.
