In a year crowded with safe bets and recycled formulas, Thamma stormed into theatres like a bloodthirsty beast, ripping apart expectations and turning the Maddock horror Comedy Universe on its head. With a ₹140-crore build, a ₹211+ crore worldwide haul, and performances that had fans roaring, this Ayushmann Khurrana–Rashmika Mandanna vampire romance didn’t just bite — it devoured everything in its path.
And now, after leaving diwali 2025 in ashes, the monster is coming home... to your screen — and soon, for free.

1. The MHCU Titan That Refused To Die — Now Reborn on OTT
Thamma isn’t just the fifth instalment of MHCU; it’s the one that flexed the hardest. After Stree 2, it became the universe’s second-highest grosser, leaving behind legacy films and smashing its way into the Top 10 hindi films of 2025 (Rank 8). A vampire love story doing numbers like this? Unheard of. Unmatched. Unapologetic.
2. Missed It in Theatres? The Film Is No Longer Forgiving. It’s Coming for You.
If you skipped the theatrical experience, Thamma isn’t letting you off easy — it’s stalking you into your living room.
✔ Paid Rental: amazon Prime Video — December 2, 2025
✔ FREE Premiere: amazon Prime Video — December 16, 2025
Mark it. Circle it. Tattoo it. This is the day the Betaal storm hits OTT.
3. A ₹140-Crore Gamble Turned blockbuster Bloodbath
Studios don’t throw ₹140 crores at horror comedies — unless they’re insane or inspired. Thamma proved Maddock was both. From grand-scale action to eerie folklore to rom-com spark, every rupee screams on screen. The film clawed in ₹185.31 crore in India, ₹211.81 crore worldwide, and laughed its way to the bank like a vampire with a credit line.
4. The Vampire love story India Didn’t Know It Needed
At its core is Alok Goyal, a delhi journalist whose life goes from breaking news to breaking necks after a mysterious attack and a dangerously irresistible woman. That woman?
🔥 Tadaka — a centuries-old Betaal vampire with charm and claws
Their romance is tragic, electric, and darkly funny — the kind of pairing that turns date nights into debates.
5. Enter Yakshasan — The Villain Who Steals the movie and Possibly Your Sleep
Every universe needs a monster. MHCU got one of its best.
Yakshasan, leader of the ancient Betaal tribe, arrives like wrath personified — ruthless, towering, and impossible to forget. His clash with Alok becomes the film’s pulsing heart, its comedy’s counterweight, and its reason for becoming a cultural moment.
6. The diwali blockbuster That Ignited a Fandom
Released during diwali 2025, the film wasn’t just watched — it was celebrated, memed, dissected, and declared a victory for original indian genre-blending cinema. Fans hailed it as MHCU’s boldest swing, and now with its OTT drop, the frenzy is about to explode again.
7. Two OTT Releases, One Ruthless Strategy
Why a double release?
Because Madhock knows one thing:
Vampires don’t wait. Audiences do. Money follows.
First, the rentals. Then the mass premiere. It’s a masterclass in hype engineering.
