(OT Webdesk)The teaser for Thama, starring Ayushmann Khurrana and Rashmika Mandanna, has dropped—offering audiences a chilling glimpse into a genre-bending tale of horror, romance, and mythology.

Directed by Aditya Sarpotdar and produced by Maddock Films, Thama is set to release on Diwali 2025 and marks the first love story in the studio’s acclaimed Horror-Comedy Universe.
