Tumbbad

This movie will definitely be in the conversation of the greatest Indian movies ever made. 50 years from now, people will be referring to this film as an absolute classic and masterpiece in the genre. Sohum Shah, take a bow. Whoever did the VFX and Makeup deserves all the awards. The story is so original and I felt the eerie atmosphere throughout the movie. Also, today's bollywood movies often try to show as much brightness in every scene. The fact that the cinematography of this film is so awesome, that it's dark, in the rain, just immerses you in the plot and the 1900s. I heard it took 6 years of hard work. Thank you for giving the Indian audience this amazing film. A big step for the future of Indian cinema

This movie is great,has eye catched VFX, Great & Original Story line .. This kind of cinema should be appriciate by indian audience becuase this kind of movie should be made..& this is only possible if Indian Audiences welcome this kind of different & intellectual & Great cinema ..Hatts of to the Producer.. This movie does not do well in box office & the biggest reason behind this is the Taste of Indian cinema that is so poor & the Movie is very rich in every way.....must watch movie..

We dont deserve movies like Tumbbad. There is no khan in this movie, no item songs, and no big stars. Do yourself a favor by watching #Tumbbad this week. Brilliant direction and breathtaking cinematography. Breaks my heart to see an empty theater on day 2. Contribute to meaningful cinema by watching it in theaters or keep complaining about movies like race3.#TumbbadWinningHearts

TUMBBAD is a small village in India where a shrine was built for a god named Hastar. He was the greedy, malevolent offspring of the goddess of prosperity, and was only spared from obliteration by the other gods, on the condition that he never be worshiped.

This is not a spoiler, since it is told in the first few minutes of the film.

What follows is the story of what happens when human and demonic desires intersect. Hastar's temple is said to contain a vast fortune in a secret chamber. Needless to say, circumstances arise which stir Hastar from his long slumber.

Enter Vinayak Rao (Sohum Shah), a man so driven by his lust for gold that he returns to TUMBBAD fifteen years after a terrible event, in order to find and abscond with Hastar's treasure.

This isn't a good idea. At all.

Rao is an astoundingly single-minded, repellent character, willing to do anything to get what he wants. He truly believes that he can trick a god to attain his riches. His family suffers much for his stubborn folly.

TUMBBAD is no mere monster movie, though the creature is impressive. It's a fantasy / horror fable, much like something from Guillermo del Toro, giving us something to think about while being scared. Some of the plot twists are inspired, especially near the end.

This movie deserves a much wider audience...

This was something that may give may give 'goosebumps' to the makers of Hollywood movies. This is a movie that will add to the Indian cinema a tons but unfortunately Indian cinema is not prepared for it. The viewers are not prepared for it. We are still into watching that regular melodrama and item songs. I was fantasized for the making of Stree and acting and drama that made it. But after watching this I can proudly appreciate the concept and depth that this movie offers. This shows us what a thriller can be like. The biggest attraction of the movie was the story that was very symbolic of the human craving. Human craving takes you into darkness is the message of the movie . Sohum Shah has played his part powerfully and so has Anita Date. The direction was not orthodox and was original. This is the first movie of its type and definitely Hollywood can learn from it. This is a much an improvement over the Hollywood stories like Annabelle, Conjuring. A must entertainment for all. Watch it, especially if you are not into watching the regular drama that Indian cinema offers like Race 3
