Sohum Shah starrer Tumbbad has been enjoying its second run at the theatres. The movie which was re-released on September 13, surpassed its original lifetime business in just seven days. Now as the craze around the Tumbbad returned, makers announced a sequel in the re-release version. While it was expected that director Rahi Anil Barve would be helming Tumbbad 2, he has now issued a note denying being associated with the sequel.
Filmmaker Rahi Anil Barve announces his trilogy – Tumbbad, Pahadpangira and Pakshitirtha
On Saturday, Rahi took to his Instagram handle to announce he will be working on a trilogy –Tumbbad, Pahadpangira, and Pakshitirtha. While its first installment, Tumbbad, released in 2018, he is now working on his second installment Pahadpangira. The director penned a long note opening up about his three movies and said he will start with the production work of the second part of the trilogy in March 2025 after wrapping up his ongoing projects Gulkanda Tales and Rakt Bramhand: The Bloody Kingdom (starring Samantha Ruth Prabhu).
Rahil Anil Barve Announces His Own Tumbbad Trilogy
“For decades I have worked on this insane trilogy with many producers changing in between. First was the greed of patriarchy. My personal and much darker version of father, son and the holy ghost. The second deals with the dawn of feminism and holier than holy satipratha—Pahadpangira. Third, the end of this trilogy will be Pakshitirtha. That’s all I have to say for now.”
Here is the post:
Rahi Anil Barve send best wishes to Sohum Shah for Tumbbad 2
Towards the end of the note, he extended best wishes to Sohum Shah and Aadesh Prasad forTumbbad 2 and wrote, “I wish Sohum and Aadesh all the best for Tumbbad II. I have no doubts it will be an outstanding success.” It seems the new director is Aadesh. Rahi’s post has added fuel to the ongoing rumours of a rift between him and Sohum. Soon after Rahi shared the post, Aadesh took to the comment section and wrote, “Thank you, @rahianilbarve . It’s not a secret that I am always cheering for you. My heart fills up with so much love, pride and excitement to see all your dreams finally coming true, all of them so hard-earned and so well-deserved.” Sohum is yet to comment on the same.
Tumbbad Makes Impact In Re Release
Rahi Anil Barve’s directed Tumbbad which stars Sohum Shah and Mohammad Samad re-released in the theatres last Friday. The film was released back in 2018, at that time, the film could not get much attention, hardly earning the budget of the film with 12.50 crore net lifetime collections. The film soon after its release in OTT became a cult classic and gained a lot of appreciation. The film received a huge response after its release again and set to cross 25 crore net.
