Alia Bhatt Joins the Cast of Tumbbad 2, Stepping Into One of Indian Cinema’s Most Iconic Mythological Franchises!

In a massive announcement for Indian cinema, Alia Bhatt has officially signed on for #Tumbbad2, joining the eagerly awaited sequel to the modern cult classic. The actress is set to share the screen with #SohumShah and #NawazuddinSiddiqui, adding immense star power to a cinematic universe celebrated for its rich folklore and haunting visual storytelling.

Sharing her excitement, Alia Bhatt said, “Tumbbad has stayed with me ever since I first watched it. Very few films create a world that feels this original and immersive, and even fewer continue to grow in people’s imagination years after they’ve released. That’s what makes this opportunity so exciting.

To now become a part of that world is incredibly special. I’m looking forward to working with Sohum and Nawaz, two artists I’ve admired for a long time, and to exploring a character that belongs to a story as rich, mysterious and unforgettable as Tumbbad. I can’t wait for audiences to experience what we’re creating together.”

Directed by Adesh Prasad, Tumbbad 2 is slated to release in cinemas on 3rd December 2027.
