Vvan – Force of the Forest, a narrative that encompasses folk fantasy, is on its way. Balaji Telefilms and TVF Motion Pictures jointly produce the thriller. Directed by Deepak Mishra and Arunabh Kumar, the thriller is making noise for all the right reasons—by intersecting the digital space with mainstream cinema. Sidharth Malhotra and Tamannaah Bhatia are in the lead. And now, Maniesh Paul has also set foot, starting on 25th October.
Maniesh Paul has long been known for his differing roles. He has the charisma to rule the throne always. However, this one marks him in a different light. Thrillers always push craft and craftsmen to higher pinnacles. The actor also shared a glimpse from the sets on social media, and we could feel the aura right through it.
Ekta Kapoor noted on casting Maniesh Paul, saying, “Maniesh has an effortless charm and an innate sense of timing—be it comedy or emotion. He brings a unique energy to the screen that audiences instantly connect with. We’re thrilled to have him on board for Vvan. His role in the film will definitely surprise people.”
The film unfolds as a sweeping visual experience that fuses mythology, mystery, and raw emotion into a single, spellbinding narrative. Set within an ancient forest alive with spiritual energy and age-old beliefs, the film journeys deep into the eternal conflict of greed, faith and more.
The film’s theatrical release is locked for 15th May, 2026. Vvan – Force of the Forest is already prompting a wave of anticipation for its impressive cast, immersive world, and vision that redefines how myth meets the modern screen.
