Some users shared their own theories about the film’s plot. A person shared, “So Thama is a female-centric film. The entire teaser is focused on Rashmika’s character. It seems she’s the vampire.” One of them wrote, “So basically Rashmika’s character turns Ayushmann into a vampire?”

The teaser begins with Ayushmann’s voiceover: “Reh paogi mere bina, sau saalon tak?” Rashmika responds, “Sau saal kya, ek pal ke liye bhi nahi.” These lines pique viewers’ interest in the story immediately.

In the film, Ayushmann will portray the role of Alok, Rashmika is Tadaka, Nawazuddin takes on Yakshasan, and Paresh portrays Ram Bajaj Goyal. Faisal Malik and Geeta Aggarwal are also a part of the film.
