Fresh off the blockbuster success of Thamma, which marks Bollywood star Ayushmann Khurrana’s career-best opening and the highest-ever debut for an origin film in Maddock’s Horror Comedy Universe, Ayushmann took to Instagram to congratulate and officially welcome Gen Z star Aneet Padda into the MHCU with Shakti Shalini.
In a heartwarming gesture today, Ayushmann took to Instagram to introduce Aneet’s next film, Shakti Shalini, whose announcement was revealed as part of Thamma’s opening credits — an exciting new chapter in Maddock’s ever-expanding horror-comedy universe. Both Ayushmann and Aneet, self-made talents and proud outsiders, have carved their own paths in the industry through sheer passion and sincerity, winning over audiences with performances that are rooted, relatable, and full of heart.
