Talking about the review, Firstpost gave Thamma 2.5 stars and wrote, “Thamma has sweep, ambition, and imagination but it’s also overlong and repetitive. The vampire jokes stop being comical after a point. There’s an ill-timed kiss too. Another flimsy moment (this time not in good ways) that shows a Herculean Ayushmann Khurrana brings back memories of a man-mountain Hrithik Roshan from the climax of Aap Mujhe Achche Lagne Lage. The cliffhangers are losing sheen and after a point, it may be difficult to connect the dots as Maddock’s horror-comedy universe continues to grow. Next in line is Shakti Shalini starring Aneet Padda in the lead. This new outing must have Geeta Sharma anyhow. We then get to see a semi-Saiyaara universe hopefully with a cameo by Mohit Suri.”
