Thamma Twitter Review: The newest Bollywood offering, Thamma, was released in theatres on October 21, perfectly timed with the festive season. Starring Ayushmann Khurrana and Rashmika Mandanna, the film has generated significant positive chatter on social media, with many calling it a "total entertainer" right from the first-day, first-show screenings.

Thamma Twitter Review

Thamma is the fifth installment in Maddock Films' popular Horror-Comedy Universe, which has previously delivered hits such as Stree, Munjya, Bhediya, and Roohi. Directed by Aditya Sarpotdar, the movie expands the cinematic world by exploring new elements of Indian folklore, specifically vampire mythology. Despite the scary subject matter, viewers have noted that the film, like Maddock’s previous ventures, successfully blends chills with an emotional, family-friendly appeal.

The core is - storyline. 1st half is slow yet deeply connected and will take u back to those dadi ki kahani days. But brace yourself.

2nd half hits hard with spine chilling twists, unexpected turns and a mind-blowing cameo action entry

While some felt the first half was a bit slow, the general consensus is that the second half features powerful storytelling, including "spine-chilling twists, unexpected turns and a mind-blowing cameo action entry." The film's direction and the performances of the cast have been widely applauded, with one moviegoer calling it a "perfect, high-energy Diwali gift" that leaves you "thoroughly entertained and completely satisfied," urging friends and family to watch it.

Stellar Cast Performances

The lead actors have received high praise. Rashmika Mandanna was cited as a "pleasant surprise," and both Ayushmann Khurrana and Nawazuddin Siddique were credited with delivering "power packed performances" that elevate their respective scenes. Additionally, Paresh Rawal's comedic timing was highlighted for providing much-needed laughs amidst the spooky plot.

Thamma Box Office Outlook

In addition to the cast and director Aditya Sarpotdar's successful maintenance of Maddock’s signature horror-comedy style, the music has also been praised for enhancing the film's tension and fun.

Thamma is fortunate to have a solo box office run this Diwali, facing no direct competition from other major Hindi releases. Trade analysts project a strong opening, expecting earnings between Rs. 30-32 crore. While this figure is slightly lower than previous festival blockbusters like Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 and Singham Returns, a strong word-of-mouth effect from the positive reviews could significantly boost its commercial success.

Given the overwhelmingly positive initial reception, Thamma is set up for a great run. Now, all eyes are on how the box office numbers unfold.
