The Look: Glamour Meets Gothic
In ‘Dilbar Ki Aankhon Ka’, Nora Fatehi dons a striking two-piece embroidered costume, featuring:
- A strappy bralette with intricate mirror work
- A high-cut asymmetrical mini skirt
- Statement jewelry and dramatic makeup to enhance the eerie mood
The scene unfolds in a nightclub filled with cloaked dancers, creating a mystical and spooky ambiance that perfectly aligns with Thamma’s horror-comedy theme.
Thamma: A Blend of Horror and Humor
Directed under the Maddock Films banner, Thamma stars Ayushmann Khurrana, Rashmika Mandanna, Paresh Rawal, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Sathyaraj, Geeta Aggarwal, and Faisal Malik in key roles.
The story revolves around Yakshaashan (played by Nawazuddin Siddiqui), a supernatural villain trapped for centuries in a cave. Ayushmann’s character, Alok, accidentally releases him, triggering strange transformations — fangs, steel-like skin, and paranormal powers.
Meanwhile, Rashmika’s mysterious role as Tadaka adds intrigue, blending love, fear, and mythological fantasy.
