Claim- Entry of dangerous villain in Tumbbad 2 fixed: Serious brainstorming on the names of Akshay Khanna and Nawazuddin Siddiqui, makers are making dark plans.
There is a huge buzz in the industry about the sequel of the cult horror film Tumbbad, released in 2018. Recently actor-producer Sohum Shah has officially joined hands with Penn Studios. The head of this studio is experienced producer Jayantilal Gada. This banner, which has been associated with grand films like RRR and Gangubai Kathiawadi, is now preparing to take the dark cinematic universe to a bigger level with Tumbbad 2. Big suspense on casting of villain: According to sources, the role of villain is going to be very important in Tumbbad 2. The makers want that this time the story should have a negative character who is not only scary but also mentally and morally complex. A source close to the project said, the team wants to bring a very strong and layered villain in the sequel. At present the names of Akshay Khanna and Nawazuddin Siddiqui are being seriously considered. Both the actors are adept at playing gray and unpredictable characters, who fit perfectly into the world of Tumbbad. The source also said that the makers want to create a character that can give a tough competition to Sohum Shah’s character in intensity and depth. The journey from ‘Tumbbad’ to ‘Tumbbad 2’, released in 2018, was initially a sleeper hit, but later it became a cult film. Its re-release in 2024 took the film’s popularity to new heights and connected a new generation of audiences to its mythological and psychological horror world. Now the news is that Tumbbad 2 may go on the floors early this year. Soham Shah is taking the project forward under his production company Soham Shah Films and is laying special emphasis on maintaining the tone and mythological depth of the film. The stakes are higher than ever With the strong production and distribution power of Penn Studios, and the ongoing discussions regarding the casting of the villain, Tumbbad 2 is being counted among the most ambitious films being made right now. Although an official casting announcement is yet to be made, there is a clear indication in the industry that the next chapter of the Tumbbad universe is going to be darker, grander and more intense than before.
