‘Tumbbad’ re-release shatters its own box office records

On its re-release, ‘Tumbbad’ shattered its original box office records and became the first film in the history of Indian cinema to surpass iconic collections of films like 'Sholay', 'Mughal-e-Azam', and 'Rockstar' on its opening day as a re-release. This historic achievement further cements Tumbbad’s legacy as a timeless cinematic masterpiece.

'Tumbbad' features the protagonist, Vinayak Rao, portrayed by Sohum Shah, navigating through the ominous night, lantern in hand, alongside his young son. The two are seen on a perilous journey, hinting at the dangerous quest that drives the narrative. The story follows Vinayak Rao's descent into greed and obsession as he seeks out a mythical treasure guarded by the malevolent entity Hastar.

‘Tumbbad 2’ will have bigger twists

Sohum Shah, the actor, and producer of the film expressed his excitement, “‘Tumbbad’ has been a special journey and a labour of love for us, and to see the love it continues to receive is overwhelming and only ratifies our belief and ethos of Sohum Shah Films, that content is king. With ‘Tumbbad 2’, we want to push the cinematic experience and boundaries even further. ‘Tumbbad 2’ will take audiences deeper into the world we’ve created, with bigger twists and a more intense exploration of what happens when greed knows no limits.”
