Sohum Shah is currently trying to boost the box office performance of his latest film, Crazxy, and has even tweaked the ending based on audience feedback to make it more engaging. However, it looks like he's also turning his attention back to Tumbbad. The original Tumbbad was a huge hit when it hit theaters again in 2024, so fans are eagerly anticipating the sequel. We’ve got some fresh updates on the sequel, covering everything from its budget to its current status. Here’s what you need to know...

Now, though, some studios are actually interested in the sequel, even with that hefty budget.

The debate surrounding the Tumbbad sequel

Rahi Anil Barve, the director of Tumbbad, and actor Sohum Shah have different takes on the film's future. Sohum insists that Tumbbad was always meant to be a standalone project, with no plans for a sequel. On the flip side, Barve believes it was intended as the first part of a trilogy. He even wrote out the stories for the trilogy but has decided he’s done with that world. While Barve is stepping away, Sohum is still interested in exploring it further. The original film showed the main character facing the fallout of his greed, transforming into the greed monster, Hastar. It’ll be intriguing to see what the sequels might bring, especially since they’re likely to tell a different story from the original.
