Yes, the film Thamma will also be released online; however, the makers have yet to decide the OTT release date.
As per information available online, Thamma has sealed an OTT deal, and it will be available for streaming on Prime Video, but the OTT release date has not been announced yet.
Typically, most movies make their OTT release within six to eight weeks after theatre release, so it is expected that the movie will be available online around mid-December.
The film, starring Ayushmann Khurrana and Rashmika Mandanna, had its theatrical release yesterday.
Thamma” is a horror-comedy directed by Aditya Sarpotdar. The story is about a meek journalist who is saved from a bear attack by Tadaka (played by Rashmika Mandanna), a vampire (Betal). Tadaka falls in love with Alok and follows him to Delhi, posing as Tarika to integrate into his family while struggling to adapt to human life.
The story revolves around the Betal sect’s code forbidding bloodsucking due to a post-World War II truce and the sect leader Yakshasan (Nawazuddin Siddiqui) being held captive for breaking this rule.
The plot thickens as Alok becomes involved with the Betals and gains supernatural powers after an accident. His transformation and association with Tadaka bring him into conflicts involving mythical creatures, including a Bhediya (wolf-like hybrid), expanding the Maddock Horror Comedy Universe.
The film incorporates elements of humour, mythology, and supernatural lore, with cameos from characters of related films, making it both a standalone narrative and part of a connected universe.
The cast includes Ayushmann Khurrana, Rashmika Mandanna, and Nawazuddin Siddiqui, with supporting roles from Paresh Rawal and Abhishek Banerjee. The movie mixes horror, comedy, and fantasy and is noted for its cultural references, including the Partition riots as a key plot device, and draws inspiration from well-known supernatural figures like Dracula and Wolverine.
