Nawazuddin Siddiqui to play the antagonist in Horror Universe's Vampires of Vijaynagar

Nawazuddin Siddiqui in Vampires of Vijaynagar:

Munjya director Aditya Sarpotdar will soon take the next film in Horror-Universe on the floor. Vampires of Vijaynagar, also titled Thamba, stars Ayushmann Khurrana in the lead role, while Rahsmika Mandanna plays the leading lady. Now, there is another exciting addition to the cast, as Nawazuddin Siddiqui is reportedly coming on board as the main villain.

As per a report in Mid-Day, Nawazuddin Siddiqui will play a deadly villain in Thamba, a story that is set in Delhi and is linked to the history of Vijaynagar. The character will have a direct connection to the history, and Nawaz is supposedly playing a vampire, wandering for centuries. A small idea of the same was given in the end credit scene of Stree 2 (2024), if you remember.

A source revealed, “Thamba is set in two periods—in a north Indian city in the present day and in the Vijayanagar Empire of the ancient past. Nawazuddin’s antagonist has been imagined as an eccentric yet violent character who lived centuries ago. He travels to the present to seek revenge and control the destinies of the two lead characters. The actor is looking forward to joining the horror comedy universe and bringing his own interpretation to the part. Aditya plans to do the look test with Nawazuddin after Diwali.”
