Thamma is directed by Aditya Sarpotdar. It is written by Niren Bhatt, Suresh Mathew and Arun Falara and produced by Dinesh Vijan and Amar Kaushik. It is the fifth instalment in the "Maddock Horror Comedy Universe" and stars Ayushmann Khurrana, Rashmika Mandanna, Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Paresh Rawal.

On his upcoming projects, Ayushmann revealed he will soon start shooting for filmmaker Sooraj Barjatya's next film.

"The shoot is going to start in the next 4 days. It is like a dream for me that I am playing the character of Prem. Because I had just thought that I wished it would happen. And, it happened. There is something new in Sooraj ji's story, and it is a good thing. It is a family film like his films. The same film hasn't been released for many years," he said.

He also confirmed a collaboration with Yash Raj Films for a new project. "I am doing another project for YRF. It is a very interesting and new story. I am very excited, though, the title is not announced yet," he said.

Created under the Maddock Films banner, Thamma is the fifth film in the Maddock Horror Comedy Universe, following Stree, Roohi, Bhediya, and Munjya. The story revolves around Ayushmann's character, who turns into a vampire and falls in love with Rashmika's character, leading to a "bloody love story" full of twists.
