Bollywood actress Tamannaah Bhatia has joined Sidharth Malhotra in Arunabh Kumar and Deepak Mishra’s upcoming fantasy folklore film Vvan – Force of the Forrest, producers Balaji Motion Pictures announced on Wednesday.

“Rooted in Indian mythology and mysticism, VVAN – Force of the Forrest unfolds a tale straight from the pages of history and folklore. Delighted to welcome @tamannaahspeaks to this powerful narrative — a force in her own right, ready to command the screen like never before,” the production house wrote on Instagram alongside a graphic video of Tamannaah’s character.

Though Tamannaah’s face wasn’t revealed in the video, the actress was seen running barefoot towards a forest. She was also seen lighting a lamp in the teaser and coming across a board which reads, “Warning: Entering the forest after sunset isn’t allowed.”

The film is expected to go on floors in June and will be released in theatres in 2026.

Tamannaah Bhatia recently won the internet with her electrifying dance moves in new Raid 2 song Nasha. Shortly after the video was released, social media platforms were abuzz with praise for Tamannaah’s dancing prowess and spectacular screen presence.
