Tovino Thomas, who kickstarted 2025 with the action thriller Identity, has announced his next, titled Thantha Vibe Hybrid. The Minnal Murali star has joined hands with director Muhsin Parari for this Malayalam film, which is backed by Ashiq Usman. Here is everything that we know about Tovino's upcoming film, which has been announced with an interesting poster.
Tovino Thomas took to Instagram on Saturday morning to announce his upcoming film, Thantha Vibe Hybrid, with a poster. The film poster features the leading man in a traditional dance pose even though his attire and the neon-coloured title scream uber-chic. The fusion poster also poses the question ‘How Old is your Inner Child?’

The film will be produced by Ashiq Usman under his banner of Ashiq Usman Productions. Ashiq Usman had earlier backed Thallumaala and Dear Friend, both of which starred Tovino Thomas. The poster also names Jimshi Khalid, Vishnu Vijay, Chaman Chakko, Masharh Hamsa, Ronex Xavier, Ashik S, A Vishnu Govind, Binu Pappu, and Sudarman Valikkunnu.
Decoding Thantha Vibe Hybrid
Those who follow Malayalam memes and trolls on social media will be aware that Thantha Vibe Hybrid is now a common term referring to people with outdated POVs or old-fashioned opinions. Naturally, the current young crop of netizens uses this word to target anyone or anything that questions their take on life. So, it would be fun to see what Tovino Thomas and Muhsin Parari, both millennials, have to offer in this movie with a title that has a Gen Z ring to it.

Meanwhile, Muhsin Parari is returning to the director’s chair with Thantha Vibe Hybrid after 10 years. His last movie was Unni Mukundan-starrer KL 10 Patthu, which was released way back in 2015. Muhsin Parari had also written the 2015 film, which narrated the story of Ahmed, a youth from Northern Kerala.
Meanwhile, Tovino Thomas’ latest release Identity will be available for streaming on ZEE5 and OTTplay Premium on January 31, 2025.
