A review by Moneycontrol notes, "‘Thamma’ ambitiously draws from key moments of ancient and modern Indian history to establish the supernatural powers of its central characters—from the journey of a conqueror in the 4th century BC to post-Independence India’s blood-soaked chapters. The intent is grand, but the narrative isn’t taut enough to hold it all together. It relies on convenient plot devices and cameos from other films in the universe to stay afloat."

Loaded with social media references, the catchy viral track Poison Baby, and Nawazuddin Siddiqui’s quirky performance as a bloodthirsty vampire, Thamma has quickly turned into a festive favourite among moviegoers.
