Ayushmann Khurrana and Rashmika Mandanna’s Thamma has remained one of the most talked-about films ever since its Diwali 2025 release. The movie blends supernatural chaos with humor, romance, and mythological elements — all wrapped in the signature Maddock Films style that fans have come to love. With its theatrical run behind it, the excitement around its OTT arrival has now kicked in, and fans who missed it in cinemas are eagerly waiting to stream it at home.
While the makers have kept the suspense around its online release for a while, the film is finally gearing up for its digital premiere — and it’s happening sooner than most expected. Before we get into those details, let’s revisit what makes Thamma such an exciting addition to the Horror Comedy Universe.
Thamma: A Story Where Romance Meets the Supernatural
Directed by Aditya Sarpotdar, Thamma dives into a fascinating mix of genres. The writing team — Niren Bhatt, Arun Fulara, and Suresh Mathew — builds a world where ancient mythological forces clash with modern-day life, while composer duo Sachin–Jigar infuse the story with an energetic soundtrack that matches the film’s dramatic tone.
The film follows Alok Goyal, played by Ayushmann Khurrana, an ambitious urban reporter whose life goes off-script when he falls in love with Tadaka/Tarika, portrayed by Rashmika Mandanna. Their chemistry is refreshing, quirky, and instantly engaging — until Alok realises that the woman he loves carries a secret far larger than he imagined. She is a vampire.
This revelation pulls Alok into a supernatural battle he never asked for. Things escalate when Yakshasan, the powerful and ruthless leader of the vampire clan (played brilliantly by Nawazuddin Siddiqui), enters the picture. His presence adds intensity to the narrative, pushing the conflict to a grand scale. The personal stakes of Alok and Tadaka’s relationship merge with a far wider mythological conflict, forming the heart of Thamma.
The movie also cleverly ties into Maddock’s established universe that includes Stree and Bhediya, expanding the mythology and teasing bigger crossovers in the future.
Thamma OTT Release Date
Now for the update fans were waiting for! Thamma is all set for its digital rollout in two phases — giving viewers early access even before it officially begins streaming.
- Digital Rental: Available from December 2, 2025
- Streaming Premiere: Arriving on Amazon Prime Video on December 16, 2025
The rental window offers early access for those eager to watch the film immediately, while the streaming launch will bring the movie to all Prime Video users with an active subscription.
This release also continues Maddock Films’ digital expansion, connecting the wider Horror Comedy Universe across platforms.
Performances That Lift The Film
Ayushmann Khurrana shines as Alok, perfectly balancing comedy, confusion, and emotional vulnerability. Rashmika Mandanna brings strength and softness to her dual-shaded character, making Tadaka/Tarika more than just a supernatural being — she is someone fighting her own destiny.
But it’s Nawazuddin Siddiqui’s Yakshasan who stands out as the film’s most intriguing layer. His intensity, expressions, and screen presence elevate the antagonist to a memorable level.
The supporting cast is equally strong:
- Paresh Rawal as Ram Bajaj Goyal
- Geeta Agarwal Sharma as Sudha Goyal
- Faisal Malik as Inspector P. K. Yadav
Actors like Shailesh Korde, Krishna Kant Rai, and Hashim Haider add texture to the narrative with their comic timing and impactful performances.
The combination of seasoned actors and fresh faces keeps the storytelling lively and engaging, successfully balancing humour with supernatural tension.
Final Thoughts
With its perfect blend of comedy, folklore, romance, and supernatural conflict, Thamma offers a unique flavour that stands apart from typical horror comedies. Ayushmann and Rashmika’s pairing is refreshing, the world-building is compelling, and the tie-ins to Maddock’s universe hint at bigger things coming in the franchise.
If you missed the film during Diwali, the OTT release ensures you won’t have to wait any longer to dive into this entertaining supernatural adventure.
