Aditya Sarpotdar has recently made a new revelation about his film ‘Munjya’ during an interview. The filmmaker told that before changing the plot of ‘Munjya’, Shraddha Kapoor was finalized for the role of Bittu. Then because of this the entire story of the film changed. Know every detail here.

‘Thama’ director Aditya Sarpotdar has made a new revelation about his film ‘Munjya’. In a special interview with Moviefied, he told that Shraddha Kapoor was initially supposed to play the role of Bittu in ‘Munjya’. This character was a lesbian whose feelings no one understood.

Shraddha Kapoor was going to play a lesbian character
Aditya Sarpotdar also told that there was confusion about Alia Bhatt and Shraddha Kapoor for the film but later the makers finalized Shraddha for this role. But Aditya Sarpotdar himself changed this plan. The director told that the writer of the film Yogesh Chandekar had written it from a woman’s perspective and with a female lead. Bittu is a lesbian who falls in love with her best friend. She tells this to Rajji and then ‘Munjya’ enters the film.

For this reason Aditya Sarpotdar changed the story of ‘Munjya’
Taking his point further, the filmmaker told in the interview that he always wanted that the story and narrative of any film should always be of the same type. If too many things are shown to the audience then they may face difficulty in understanding the film. The filmmaker shared that he felt it was more appropriate to compare Munjya with a man in the role of Bittu. Both the characters are in love with a girl six years older than them, but their approach towards their love is quite different.

Aditya Sarpotdar shared with the makers that while Munjya becomes violent to get his love, Bittu chooses the path of sacrifice for his love. When the filmmaker shared his idea, everyone agreed to his suggestion. Let us tell you, the role of Bittu was played by Abhay Verma in the film.

About ‘Munjya’
This film of Aditya Sarpotdar was released on June 7 last year. Many stars including Abhay Verma, Sharvari Wagh, Mona Singh, Taran Singh were seen in lead roles in this film. The story of the film begins when Abhay Verma i.e. Bittu reaches his village and suddenly he meets the demon Munjya. Both of them fall in love with Bela (Sharwari Wagh). There is a fierce confrontation between Bittu and Munjya to save Bela.

Maddock Horror Comedy Universe’s recent release ‘Thama’ is rapidly moving towards the Rs 100 crore club at the box office despite facing tough competition from films like ‘Kantara Chapter 1’ and ‘Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat’.

After adding its name to the Top 5 Biggest Openers of 2025 on the opening day itself, the film is now moving ahead with the hope of breaking the records of the films of its own universe. The continuously increasing figures are also a witness to this.

Box office collection of ‘Thama’

The vampire look of Ayushmann Khurrana and Rashmika Mandanna is being liked by the audience. According to Saknilk below, the daily data related to the film’s earnings is also giving evidence of this. Please note that today’s data in this table is till 4:20 pm and is not final. This may change now.

day	Box office collection (in crores)
Day 1	24
Day 2	18.6
Day 3	13
Day 4	2.92
total	58.52

The records of which films of Maddock horror comedy universe are in danger?

A total of 5 films of this horror comedy universe have been released so far. The 4 films that came before ‘Thama’ earned decent money at the box office. Everyone’s data can be seen in the list below according to Secnilc.

• Female – 129.83 crores
• Wolf- 68.99 crores
• Munjya- 101.6 crores
• Stree 2- 597.99 crores

Obviously, in the above list, first the records of Varun Dhawan’s ‘Bhediya’ and then ‘Munjya’ will be broken. After this, the film can reach close to the record of ‘Stree’ very soon. However, it is going to be most difficult for ‘Thama’ to cross the lifetime collection of ‘Stree 2’.

But it has become clear that ‘Thama’ Maddock can soon become the second highest grossing film of the horror comedy universe so far.

‘Thama’ budget

According to the news of Times of India, the film has been made with a budget of Rs 145 crore. Made under the direction of Aditya Sarpotdar, this film has earned Rs 72 crore worldwide in 3 days.

Madock Universe, who has made a big fan base by making films like ‘Stree 2’ and ‘Munjya’, has released the trailer of ‘Thama’. On seeing this trailer, it is realized that this ‘woman 2’ can become a blockbuster.

In front of this film, released on the occasion of Diwali on 21 October, except for ‘Ek Diwan Ki Diwaniayat’, no big film is in competition. Apart from this, there are reasons below which can make it a king at the box office.

‘THAMA’ to cut the box office, 5 reasons

1. You must have seen the love story of vampires from Twilight Series films to Vampire Diaries in Hollywood. But this is the first time that such a vampire film is being made in Bollywood. So this is enough to draw the audience to theaters.
2. During the trailer launch of the film and already before, the makers have been hinted by the makers that there are going to be a character of women and wolf in the film. Both are popular. The audience will also like to see the jugalbandi of these two along with THAMA.
3. In the trailer, the comedy is seen in Madock Universe films, the same comedy is seen. Which looks very prescribed in many places. Obviously, it is enough to make the audience laugh.
4. In the film, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Rashmika Mandana and Ayushman Khurana have become all three vampires. Seeing his favorite actors in such a form is a big reason for their fans to draw theaters for the film.
5. Apart from this, there is comedy and horror in the film, the most special thing that was seen in the trailer is the action of the film which is giving a feel like Twilight Series films. Obviously, for the first time in the Universe film, so much action is going to be seen, so the audience will come to see the film.

If you have a slight doubt in these 5 reasons, then see the trailer of the film here, the doubt will go away.

Sharvari wagh upcoming movies: It is not an easy thing to earn a name in Bollywood, but Sharawari Wagh has started this journey with his hard work and stubbornness. She has worked in low budget to big budget films and is making her move towards becoming a superstar very fast.

First break from Munjya

The film Munjya, which came out last year, proved to be a game also for Sharvari. This film made in a low budget managed to make a place for itself in the box office and the hearts of the audience.

The film had a mail of horror and comedy, which the audience liked very much. The style and acting of Shawari caught everyone’s attention. The film earned up to Rs 100 crore at the box office, as well as the film introduced Sharawari as a strong newcomer.

Power shown in Veda

After Munjya, Sharawari was seen in Veda. Although this film could not do so amazing at the box office, but Shawari’s acting won the hearts of audience and film critics. Prior to this, she has also gathered praise for her acting in Maharaj film. Seeing her strong style in the film, it was found out that Sharvari could easily play any kind of character.

Upcoming films of Sharvari

Now Shawari is fully prepared to step into big level films. She is going to be seen soon in the film Alpha. In this film, Sharvri will be seen in a strong style with Alia Bhatt, as well as the film will be full of action and thriller, which will keep the audience tied to the screen.

On the one hand, Alia Bhatt is going to be seen in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s upcoming film Love and War with Ranbir Kapoor, and Vicky Kaushal. Through this mega budget film, she will make strong efforts to present herself

So on the other hand, Deepika Padukone is also desperate to increase her stardom with 2 big budget films like Atallie’s film and Kalki 2898 AD. In such a situation, Shawari is also ready to compete with them with a big film.
