After keeping fans waiting and dropping several hints, the makers of Tumbbad 2 have finally revealed its release date. The much-awaited sequel will arrive in theatres on December 3, 2027.
Actor-producer Sohum Shah shared the news on social media along with a new poster. In his caption, he wrote, “A sinful past, an ominous future. The hunger rises, the legacy of greed continues… Mark your calendars #Tumbbad2 arrives on 3.12.2027 #PralayAayega.”
The first Tumbbad, released in 2018, stood out for its unique mix of horror and folklore. Over time, it gained a strong fan following and became a cult favourite. Its re-release in 2024 brought even more attention, increasing excitement for the sequel.
With Tumbbad 2, the makers are planning to take the story forward while keeping the same dark and gripping feel of the original.
Speaking about the sequel, Sohum Shah said the film aims to take the story to a larger and more layered space. "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,” he shared.

Director Adesh Prasad said taking the story forward has been both exciting and challenging. “The first film has a strong identity, so our focus is to keep its soul intact while also making the story and visuals bigger. We're trying to create something that feels rooted in the original, but at the same time offers audiences a fresh and immersive experience,” he explained.
Producer Jayantilal Gada shared that the sequel is being planned as a bigger cinematic experience with a richer story.
The film is directed by Adesh Prasad and produced by Sohum Shah under his banner Sohum Shah Films, along with Pen Studios. Tumbbad 2 will feature Sohum Shah in a key role, and reports suggest that Nawazuddin Siddiqui may also be part of the cast.
