Tamannaah Ready To Follow Sunny Leone's Footsteps, To Do Erotically Charged Role In Ragini MMS 3

Move over, special numbers. Tamannaah Bhatia is ready to dial up the fear factor, and let's just say, it's going to be a very different kind of hot. Fresh off setting screens on fire with her bold turn in Lust Stories 2 and those viral dance anthems, Tamannaah is in final talks to headline the most-awaited horror franchise's return - Ragini MMS 3.

Tamannaah On Sunny Leone's Footsteps

And yeah, the moment you hear "Ragini MMS," your mind instantly flashes to Sunny Leone in Ragini MMS 2, a film that pretty much rewrote the rules for horror-erotica a decade ago with its unabashed intimate scenes. It was a career-defining hit for Sunny. Now, Tammy is looking to make it her own.

The buzz is that the queen of Indian television, Ekta Kapoor, has been desperate to complete her infamous trilogy. A source spilled the beans to Pinkvilla: "Ekta Kapoor has been wanting to make the third part of Ragini MMS for a while now, and she has brain stormed several ideas to complete a trilogy. She has finally got a subject that doesn't only blends into the world of Ragini MMS, but takes things to another level with a potential rebranidng into a new genre. The film is all set to take the film on floors towards the end of 2025."

The deal went down on the sets of their other project, Vann. The source adds, "Ekta discussed the idea of Ragini MMS 3 with Tamannaah Bhatia on the sets of Vann, and the actress was stunned by the horror quotient the film has to offer. The film also has scope for chartbuster music, and the team is on the hunt for a song that could take the nation by storm. Interestingly, Ragini MMS 3 will be the biggest film of the franchise and Ekta is looking to rebrand the film as a horror comedy, breaking ties with the horror-erotica space of the earlier two films."

Tamannaah Broke No Kis Policy Earlier

This is a fascinating full-circle moment for Tamannaah. Remember when she had a strict "no-kissing" clause in her contracts? That rulebook has been tossed out the window. Her transition to OTT was a conscious, powerful choice to own her narrative. She's spoken about how doing bold scenes made her a more technical, aware actor. Now, she's taking all that confidence and channeling it into what's being promised as the biggest film of the franchise.

So, get ready. Tamannaah isn't just stepping into Sunny Leone's shoes; she's kicking down the door to a whole new genre. The nation might just get a new horror-comedy queen, and a scandalous chartbuster to obsess over. 2025 can't come soon enough.
