The Vvaan Trailer Debuts, Framing a Forbidden Forest Folklore for Theatres

The Mumbai launch signals a transmedia push that blends ritual imagery with a Chhath song to foreground a development‑versus‑tradition story.

Overview

  • The film’s official trailer was unveiled at a Mumbai event on Wednesday, September 16, and it sets up a forbidden‑forest premise where a sceptical city man is drawn into supernatural forces tied to local folklore.
  • Lead actors Sidharth Malhotra and Tamannaah Bhatia attended the trailer launch and discussed the film’s cultural roots while Tamannaah highlighted the Chhathi Maiya song and said religious advisers praised its attention to detail.
  • Ahead of the trailer, Sidharth and producer Ektaa R. Kapoor visited Mumbai’s Lalbaugcha Raja on Tuesday, September 15, performing barefoot prayers as part of the film’s devotional‑tinged promotion.
  • The campaign is explicitly transmedia: makers have already released a tie‑in comic, The Legend of Vvaan, and the project marks TVF’s high‑profile theatrical collaboration with Balaji Motion Pictures and 11:11 Productions.
  • The Vvaan: Force of the Forrest is scheduled to open in cinemas on September 25, 2026, and the trailer frames the central conflict as development pressures that threaten a sacred forest and its traditions, a theme likely to shape audience and critical reaction.
