About Thamma
Thamma is the fifth instalment in the popular Maddock Horror-Comedy Universe (MHCU), featuring films like Stree, Stree 2, Bhediya and Munjya. The story centres around Alok Gupta (played by Ayushmann Khurrana), whose life takes a dramatic turn after he turns into a vampire. Meanwhile, he falls for Tadaka (Rashmika Mandanna), also a vampire.
Previously, Rashmika Mandanna opened up about finding the human connection in her character Tadaka. The actress, in a conversation with IANS, revealed, “I've realised Tadaka's just picking up emotions through the journey because it's been like so many years that she's been alive, but she's also been in the forest."
“So for her, human emotions, humans are a fascinating species. Like every time they cry, she's just wondering how they're crying. Every time they laugh, she's just wondering, ‘Oh, this is how you smile.' And she's trying to replicate that from Alok and things like that. Those are the minute details that I'd worked on because I basically was like, ‘okay, I'm an animal,'” she added.
Thamma marks the first collaboration between Ayushmann Khurrana and Rashmika Mandanna. Besides the leading duo, the movie also features Paresh Rawal, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Faisal Malik and Geeta Agarwal Sharma in key roles.
