Following its massive theatrical launch this Diwali, the highly anticipated fifth installment of Maddock's Horror Comedy Universe, Thamma, will be released digitally on Prime Video in staggered releases. October 21, 2025, a premium window coinciding with the festive season, is when the film, which features Ayushmann Khurrana and Rashmika Mandanna, is set to hit theatres.
Staggered OTT release on Prime Video
The makers have already secured the film's OTT window. Prime Video will be the first to offer Thamma for rent likely on December 2, 2025. On December 16, 2025, all customers is most likely to have access to the full, unlimited streaming version, exactly two weeks after that. Maximising box office revenue and subsequent digital viewing are the goals of this smart distribution pattern.
Thamma is the next installment in Maddock Films' popular horror-comedy-romantic-element-infused film franchise. The film is set to reinterpret ancient Indian tradition with a dark, romantic, ghostly twist, according to Aditya Sarpotdar, Niren Bhatt, Suresh Mathew, and Arun Falara, who wrote the screenplay
Thamma plot overview
The story revolves around an ambitious historian named Alok Goyal (Ayushmann Khurrana). He is fixated on the vampire mythology that exists inside the Vijayanagara empire's legends. His studies unwittingly set in motion the plot's central villain, the fearsome vampire Yakshasan (Nawazuddin Siddiqui), who is hell-bent on amassing an army of the living dead to subjugate humanity.
When Alok undergoes a miraculous metamorphosis, his life takes a dramatic turn. Tadaka, played by Rashmika Mandanna, a fascinating and adventurous woman with ties to the same ancient lineage, comes to his rescue. As Alok and Tadaka face Yakshasan and a cosmic plot that could destroy them, a "bloody love story" develops as they try to make sense of their horrific new reality while still having humanity.
Ensemble cast and cameo appearance
In keeping with the Maddock tradition of ensemble casts and startling cameos, veteran actor Paresh Rawal also appears in the cast as Ram Bajaj Goyal, with a special appearance by Varun Dhawan, reprising his role from Bhediya.
The shoot for the big production, produced by Amar Kaushik and Dinesh Vijan, began in December 2024. By mid-2025, filming had concluded at a number of significant Indian locations, including Ooty, Delhi, and Mumbai. Sachin-Jigar, the duo known for creating great songs that complement their films, has composed the soundtrack album for the flick.
Expected impact
As a result of its massive theatre premiere during Diwali and subsequent digital debut, Thamma is expected to be one of the most significant Indian releases of late 2025, further establishing the Maddock Horror Comedy Universe as a mainstay of Bollywood entertainment. If you miss the theatrical window, don't worry—this "bloody love story" will be available to watch at home on the scheduled OTT dates.
