The much-awaited trailer of Thamma just dropped, and it’s already creating hype among audiences. The 5th installation of ‘Maddock’s Horror Comedy Universe’ promises to be an entertaining ride packed with folklore, body horror, occult spirit, love, and revenge. Here’s a breakdown of everything that stands out from the trailer:
The Folklore Driven Plot
Maddock is known for blending several elements into a story. This time with Thamma, they’re blending Indian folklore of an occult like Shaitan with the Western concept of Vampire. A touch of body horror is also present in the trailer, much like the previous film of this universe, Bhediya (2022).
Stellar Performances
The film boasts a powerful cast with veterans and young talents sharing the screen together. It has Ayushmann Khurrana, Rashmika Mandanna and Nawazuddin Siddique in the lead roles. While Paresh Rawal, Faisal Malik, and Sathyaraj lend support. Varun Dhawan and Shraddha Kapoor are expected to reprise their roles from their predecessor.
Slice of Life Storytelling
Maddock’s speciality is to present any story as a slice-of-life piece to cater to a wide range of audiences. The relatable charm and connectivity are their key to success. Their latest film, Thamma, also promises the same.
Strong Visual Appeal
The cinematography stands out with spooky lighting and gothic frames, perfectly complementing the horror-comedy theme. The music, too, adds to the vibe of the universe.
The Thamma trailer is a promising peek into a heart-tugging story of ghosts that blends emotional realism with supernatural activities. It feels less like a movie and more like an experience every Indian family can enjoy. If the trailer is anything to go by, Thamma is set to be one of the most celebrated films of the year. Thamma is going to be released this Diwali on 21st October, 2025.
