Thama’s Rooftop Moment Ft. Ayushmann Khurrana And Rashmika Mandanna Reminds Fans Of K-Drama My Demon!
The discussion began when a social media user posted side-by-side images from Thama and My Demon.
Recently, the teaser for Ayushmann Khurrana and Rashmika Mandanna’s highly anticipated Thama was dropped and with that, the buzz for the movie increased. The horror-comedy’s thrilling visuals and the blend of romance and supernatural elements have fans counting days for its release. However, K-drama fans noticed a similarity between Thama and My Demon, featuring Song Kang and Kim Yoo-jung. This led to a heated online debate about whether the movie copied the K-drama or simply drew inspiration. Read on to know all about it.
Is Ayushmann Khurrana, Rashmika Mandanna’s Thama Inspired By My Demon?
The discussion began when a social media user posted side-by-side images from Thama and My Demon. In Thama, Rashmika Mandanna’s character is seen gripping Ayushmann Khurrana’s arm as he dangles from a rooftop. In My Demon, Song Kang’s character holds Kim Yoo-jung in a similar moment.
The post spread like wildfire online, with some fans calling Thama a direct copy of the K-drama. One user wrote, “Maddock copy aur collection fraud me ustad hai.”

Whereas, others joked that both scenes feature a hero and heroine, so it must be a copy. Meanwhile, defenders of Thama stated that the inspiration is common in filmmaking. One user wrote, “U will find hundreds of more similar trivial scenes like this if u actually try.”
Thama is a romantic comedy with a supernatural twist and is a mix of humour, love, and mythology. Ayushmann plays Alok, and Rashmika plays the character of Tadaka. My Demon is a fantasy romance between a demon and a wealthy heiress.
Directed by Aditya Sarpotdar and produced by Dinesh Vijan, Thama is said to be released around Diwali 2025.
Fans are now waiting to see if Thama delivers a fresh story or leans too heavily on familiar tropes.
