Fresh buzz around Tumbbad 2 suggests that Alia Bhatt could also be set to make a special appearance within the upcoming folk horror sequel. In line with recent reports, the actor is anticipated to feature in a temporary but significant role within the film, which is currently being shot in Mumbai.
Alia Bhatt to make special appearance in Sohum Shah-Nawazuddin Siddiqui’s Tumbbad 2: Report
The sequel stars Sohum Shah and Nawazuddin Siddiqui, with direction by Adesh Prasad. Industry reports claim that while Alia’s screen time could also be limited, her character could play a very important role in moving the story forward. A report by Mid-Day quoted a source stating that the makers were on the lookout for someone who could bring impact and intrigue in a brief appearance, and Alia was considered an appropriate fit.
Tumbbad 2 is anticipated to proceed exploring the dark mythology surrounding Hastar, the cursed deity introduced in the primary film. The story can also be said to look at the implications of disturbing forces that were never meant to be worshipped.
Production on the sequel began on April 7, 2026. The film has mounted an ambitious shoot schedule, with a large-scale set spread across 7 to eight acres, reportedly constructed in Mumbai to resemble a whole city. The size of the production has added to growing anticipation across the sequel.
The Mid-Day report further speculated that Alia Bhatt’s portions are being filmed on an elaborate set in Madh Island. She is anticipated to shoot for 2 days. Because the actor can also be set to attend the Met Gala 2026 on May 4, it has been reported that a body double could also be used for certain patch scenes to administer schedules.
The project is being produced by Sohum Shah under Sohum Shah Movies in association with Pen Studios, headed by Dr. Jayantilal Gada. Distribution responsibilities are with Pen Marudhar. Meanwhile, an official confirmation regarding Alia Bhatt’s involvement remains to be awaited. The film is currently scheduled for release on December 3, 2027.
