There were also fans who appreciated specific elements. One praised the background music and Nawazuddin’s comic timing as “next level,” while another expressed hope for consistent VFX quality and a more mature tone, cautioning, “Delivers exactly what you’d expect from this universe. Now that it’s leaning more into the fantasy side, I just hope the VFX-CGI stays consistent. Wishing for a more mature tone this time… and Nawaz, please don’t go overboard with the acting. #Thama.”

So Thama is a female centric film. The entire teaser is focused on Rashmika’s character. It seems she’s the vampire.
