What was the whole matter? During an interview, when Ayushmann was asked about the comparison between his horror-comedy film ‘Thamma’ and the recent Malayalam vampire film ‘Loka’, he said, “Our The film is more ‘maasi’ because it reaches deep into the Hindi speaking markets as well.” He also said that when he was shooting in Allahabad, ‘Loka’ had not been released there.

Explaining the meaning of his ‘Maasi’ comment, he said that he only meant the reach of the film. He said, “I wanted to say that in the Hindi speaking market… like I was shooting in Allahabad, ‘Loka’ was not released there. ‘Thamma’ will reach those places also. I myself wanted to see ‘Loka’ there, but it was not released there.” After this clarification of Ayushmann, it has become clear that his intention was not to make any film look small, but he was only for the wide distribution of his film.
