“I have the rights to make the films Veerana, Purana Haveli, and Purana Mandir. This means I will be producing them. I think there is a lot more to discover in this kind of movie. From a business perspective, it makes sense. Today, most films are horror comedies. As a writer, you can really create anything with genuine horror films. People are getting bored with the same old stories, and horror has so many options. There is a large audience eager for real horror, so it seems like a good time for this,” Sohum says.
Today, many creators are creating different worlds in their stories. We see tales about police officers, spies, and even funny spooky stories. With Tumbbad 2 and new takes on well-known scary films, is Sohum also trying to create a horror world? He replies, “We’ll see what happens, but Tumbbad is already its own world. We had this idea back in 2017 when we made it. There’s space for a prequel, sequel, and more about the characters. So yes, we want to look into that.” Also Read – Pushpa 2 makers offer Rs 50 lakh support to stampede victim’s family, Allu Arjun for questioning Hyderabad cops summon
