The plot?
Two lovers fighting fate, family, and some bloodthirsty Betaals. It’s ambitious, maybe too much at times, but the twists keep you hooked.

Varun Dhawan has also reprised his role of Bhediya in Thamma and is seen in a cameo role. While speaking on Zoom, Thamma’s writer, Niren Bhatt, talked about how Bhediya has been included in the film.
“In Thamma, we have a huge werewolf. Now, whether it is Varun Dhawan or Kriti Sanon, we will get to know in the film. In Bhediya, we showed Bhaskar as a normal wolf. The version in Thamma is more muscular and bigger. How did that version form? We have answers in the film,” he said.
According to reports, the first look of Shakti Shalini will be unveiled with Thamma. For the unversed, Thamma is the new addition to Maddock Films Horror Universe and will be a vampire love story. It is not clear whether the makers will embed Shakti Shalini’s look in ‘Thamma’. Despite the massive buzz around ‘Shakti Shalini’, the makers have maintained their silence.
Meanwhile, Thamma also stars Rashmika Mandanna, Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Paresh Rawal in the lead roles.
