Ayushmann Khurrana and Rashmika Mandanna`s Thama teaser out
The tone? A deliciously eerie blend of horror, mythology, and romance—precise, gripping, and impossible to ignore.
What the Teaser Reveals
It doesn’t dawdle. The teaser opens with a haunting exchange:
“Reh paogi mere bina, sau saalon tak?”
“Sau saal kya, ek pal ke liye bhi nahi?”
Those lines instantly zing—packed with romantic intensity yet drenched in supernatural dread. Viewers sense this isn’t just another love story; it’s a love that bleeds, drips, and maybe even bites.
A caption sets the mood: “Wo kehte hai na darr kabhi itna shaktishaali tha, aur na pyaar kabhi itna BLOODY! This Diwali, prepare for a cinematic experience that is wild, deadly, and unforgettable. The World of Thama storms into cinemas worldwide this Diwali. But before that, don’t forget to catch the teaser on the big screen during Param Sundari, on Aug 29. #ThamaThisDiwali.”
Why It Matters in Maddock’s Horror-Comedy Universe
Directed by Aditya Sarpotdar (known for Munjya), Thama marks a fascinating pivot in the Maddock Horror-Comedy Universe (MHCU).
Unlike its predecessors (Stree, Bhediya, Munjya, and Stree 2), this instalment centres on a romantic narrative with supernatural undertones. Vampires, myth, and romance weave together in a macabre dance.
The title “Thama” hints at mythic depth—probably inspired by Ashwatthama, the immortal warrior from the Mahabharata—suggesting themes of vengeance, legacy, and power echoing across timelines.
