Produced by Dinesh Vijan’s Maddock Films, Thamma represents a significant milestone in the studio’s beloved supernatural horror universe. Directed by Aditya Sarpotdar, the film is described as a “bloody love story” that brilliantly blends folklore-inspired horror with quirky humor. The recently released trailer has already captivated audiences with its fresh and unique take on supernatural romance.
The film stars Ayushmann Khurrana as a vampire, marking his debut in the horror-comedy genre. His first on-screen pairing with Rashmika Mandanna has generated considerable excitement. Adding further weight to the cast are acclaimed actors Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Paresh Rawal in pivotal roles. Thamma is the latest installment in Maddock’s expanding horror-comedy universe, which includes hits like Stree (starring Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor), Bhediya (featuring Varun Dhawan), and Munjya (with Abhay Verma and Sharvari).
Each film builds upon the interconnected supernatural world, with Thamma positioned as a crucial chapter that will continue to grow the franchise’s legacy. With YRF spearheading its international release, Thamma is expected to attract widespread attention from diaspora audiences seeking festive and entertaining cinema. Set to release worldwide in theaters on October 21, just in time for Diwali, the film promises a captivating blend of horror, humor, and romance delivered through Maddock’s signature storytelling style.
