Prime Video India has unveiled a new glimpse and details of Vvan: Force of the Forrest, an upcoming horror-thriller that blends folklore, mythology, and modern storytelling. The film, which will stream on Prime Video post its theatrical release, promises a gripping narrative where logic collides with the supernatural.
Headlined by Sidharth Malhotra and Tamannaah Bhatia, the story follows a rational urban man who defies a long-standing ancestral warning and ventures into a forbidden forest. What begins as curiosity soon turns into chaos as he awakens a divine goddess, triggering forces far beyond human understanding. As danger looms, he must transform into an unlikely saviour to protect his village from impending destruction.
The film is backed by a strong production lineup including Balaji Telefilms Ltd in association with TVF Motion Pictures and 11:11 Productions. Producers Shobha Kapoor, Ektaa Kapoor, Arunabh Kumar, and Niraj Kothari bring together a mix of mainstream and digital storytelling expertise, hinting at a project with both scale and substance.
Directed by Deepak Mishra and written by Arunabh Kumar, Vvan: Force of the Forrest explores the clash between urban skepticism and age-old beliefs. The narrative taps into themes of faith, fear, and destiny, positioning itself within the growing space of Indian folklore-driven cinema that has resonated strongly with audiences in recent years.
The ensemble cast further adds intrigue, featuring Maniesh Paul, Sunil Grover, Shweta Tiwari, and Anup Soni in key roles. Their presence suggests a narrative rich in character dynamics alongside its supernatural core.
Slated for a theatrical release on May 15, 2026, the film is already drawing comparisons to folklore-rooted hits like Kantara, thanks to its blend of mysticism and grounded storytelling. With its intriguing premise and strong creative backing, Vvan: Force of the Forrest is shaping up to be a compelling addition to the genre before it makes its digital debut on Prime Video.
