It is why I have been working regularly for the last 2 years, so for me, I feel my job is completely fulfilling, but it's not the same for every artist, and totally depends upon your hard work, talent, approach and luck. I'm happy and enjoying essaying Sukoon, it gives me sukoon (smiles).

The film, directed by Aditya Sarpotdar, features Ayushmann Khurrana as Alok, and Rashmika Mandanna will be seen as Tadaka. Varun Dhawan gave a huge shoutout to Ayushmann Khurrana and Rashmika Mandanna's upcoming horror comedy Thama. The actor took to social media to share his excitement for the much-anticipated project. The teaser was released on August 19. Vicky Kaushal, Rajkummar Rao also praised the teaser. Taking to his Instagram stories, Varun Dhawan shared the teaser and wrote, '@amarkaushik bhaii Thama is hain aapka. Look so good." Actor Vicky Kaushal couldn't stop himself from giving a huge shout-out to the horror comedy. Impressed by the trailer, the Chhaava actor took to social media and reshared the trailer of the film. Sharing the video on his Instagram stories, he wrote, 'Bloody good #Thama," tagging the cast and crew of the film. Thama's Official Teaser The teaser begins on a romantic note, with Ayushmann's character asking, 'Reh paogi mere bina, sau saalon tak? (Can you live without me for a hundred years?" To this, Rashmika responds, 'Sau saal kya, ek pal ke liye bhi nahi (Not even for a moment)," setting the stage for a tender love story. But within seconds, the tone darkens with flashes of blood-soaked chaos, supernatural forces, and Rashmika screaming in fury. In the teaser, fans also get a glimpse of Malaika Arora making a striking appearance in what appears to be a special dance number, while Paresh Rawal and Faisal Malik balance the horror with lighter moments. The final frame shows Nawazuddin Siddiqui's entry as Yakshasan, menacingly introduced as the 'Andhere ka Badshah (King of Darkness)." Set in a fictional world, fans can look forward to a 'bloody' love story unlike any other with shades of suspense, thrill, and romance. Thama's Cast And Characters The film, directed by Aditya Sarpotdar and produced by Maddock Films, features Ayushmann Khurrana as Alok, and Rashmika Mandanna will be seen as Tadaka. Nawazuddin Siddiqui takes on the opposing force, the king of darkness, Yakshasan, who threatens their love. Veteran actor Paresh essays Ram Bajaj Goyal, a character that will bring humour to the otherwise chilling narrative. Border 2: Varun Dhawan will be next seen in Border 2. This Independence Day, the makers of the highly anticipated film Border 2 released its first poster, which stars Sunny Deol. They also announced that the highly anticipated film will be released in theatres on January 22, 2026. The film promises an unprecedented patriotic cinematic experience. In a conversation with Zoom, Sunny Deol said, 'I have just done a little work with Varun till now. Now I am going to be shooting with Diljit and Varun again together, so it's going well, I hope that we live up to it because it's very scary." He added that the anticipation is just like when Gadar 2 released but the actor said 'because of that fear, I am not going to let it stop me from doing things. Let's follow the script and flow with it, and hopefully, we will satisfy the audience's expectations." First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
