The makers of Tumbbad 2 have finally announced its release date. The sequel to Sohum Shah’s film will be released in theatres in December 2027. The reveal comes after weeks of intrigue, with the team teasing audiences through motion posters and subtle updates around the film’s return.
With Tumbbad, Sohum Shah created a distinct space for folklore horror in Indian cinema, and the film has only grown in popularity over the years. It was re-released in theatres in 2024, further strengthening its fan base and building anticipation for the sequel.
Now, with Tumbbad 2, the makers are looking to take that world forward, expanding its story and scale while staying rooted in the tone that made the original stand out.
Take a look at the date announcement post here:
Talking about the sequel, Sohum Shah said, “Tumbbad has always been very special to me, and with Tumbbad 2, the idea is to take that world forward in a way that feels deeper and more expansive. We are building on the mythology and the atmosphere that audiences connected with, while exploring new layers within the story. It’s something that will feel familiar in its essence, but also new in the way it unfolds.”
Director Adesh Prasad shared, “Taking this story forward has been both exciting and challenging, especially because the first film has such a strong identity. Our focus has been on retaining that soul while pushing the narrative and visual world further. We’re trying to create something that feels rooted in the original, but at the same time offers audiences a fresh and immersive experience.”
Tumbbad 2 is being directed by Adesh Prasad and spearheaded by actor-producer Sohum Shah under his banner Sohum Shah Films, with Pen Studios. It will be released theatrically on December 3, 2027.
