Tamannaah Bhatia’s reported association with Ektaa Kapoor’s much-anticipated horror franchise, Ragini MMS 3, has been put on hold indefinitely. This development comes as a surprise for fans who were eagerly awaiting the third installment, especially with Tamannaah Bhatia’s involvement. The project faces significant uncertainty regarding its production timeline.
Why Ragini MMS 3 is on Hold The primary reason for the indefinite pause in Ragini MMS 3’s production is the exit of its director, Sahir Raza. Raza was reportedly removed from the project due to unavoidable scheduling conflicts. He is currently serving as a showrunner for a Netflix series, and a recent mandate from the streaming platform requires his daily presence on set. This requirement created a direct overlap with the production schedule for Ragini MMS 3, making his continued involvement impossible. This unforeseen development has left Ekta Kapoor's film temporarily stranded, with no clarity on when it might resume production. While makers are actively seeking a replacement director, an immediate restart seems unlikely, posing a significant hurdle for the popular horror franchise.
Tamannaah Bhatia's Busy Upcoming Slate Despite the temporary halt of Ragini MMS 3, Tamannaah Bhatia has a robust line-up of projects, ensuring her fans will see her in various exciting roles across different genres. Her upcoming films include:
• O’ Romeo: Tamannaah will appear in a key role alongside Shahid Kapoor in Vishal Bhardwaj's action thriller, scheduled for release on February 13, 2026.
• V. Shantaram: She co-stars with Siddhant Chaturvedi, portraying Jayashree, the legendary actress and second wife of the iconic filmmaker.
• Vvan: Starring alongside Sidharth Malhotra, this film is set against the forest backdrop of central India, exploring folklore rooted in Hindu mythology, with a slated release this year.
• Rohit Shetty’s Biographical Action Film: Tamannaah will share the screen with John Abraham, portraying Preeti Maria, the wife of former Mumbai Police Commissioner Rakesh Maria.
• Purushan: On the Tamil front, she is set to play the co-lead alongside Vishal in this upcoming project.
While the search for a new director for Ragini MMS 3 continues, there has been no official announcement regarding when the Tamannaah Bhatia-led film will officially go on floors, leaving its future production timeline uncertain for now.
