Rashmika’s ‘Thama’ Isn’t What You Think!

Just when audiences thought they had Bollywood’s supernatural universe figured out, Rashmika Mandanna and Ayushmann Khurrana’s upcoming film Thama is breaking the mold. Rashmika, who recently appeared in Sikander, continues her busy streak with this new romantic supernatural drama. Directed by Aditya Sarpotdar, Thama is now progressing rapidly with its shoot.

But here’s the surprise. Director Aditya has confirmed that Thama is not a horror comedy like Stree or Bhediya. Instead, it weaves a love story with elements of the supernatural. “People expect another scary-funny ride, but this one is heartfelt. At its core, it’s a romance,” Aditya explained in a recent interview. With emotions leading the narrative, the supernatural acts more as a backdrop than the focus.

Curiosity is sparked by Rashmika and Ayushmann's collaboration on this genre-bending venture. While remaining in the Madak Universe, the creators hope to produce something unique. The production crew is hoping that this risk will pay off because it is a daring change from what the public has seen previously. Rashmika's admirers are particularly thrilled to see her in a part that emphasizes connection and heart above humor and yelling.

Thama, which is scheduled for a lavish Diwali release, offers a welcome shift in tone. Expect more excitement as the release date draws closer, as well as perhaps a trailer that teases the distinct taste this movie will offer. The supernatural recipe has already generated a lot of interest for those who dare to attempt it, regardless of whether Thama changes it or not.
