The first-look poster of Vinay Forrt's next film, Thamasha, has been unveiled online, revealing Lijo Jose Pellissery as one of the film's producers along with director Sameer Thahir, cinematographer Shyju Khalid, and actor Chemban Vinod Jose. Sameer and Shyju also produced last year's Sudani from Nigeria. The former, in addition to co-producing, is acting as the cinematographer for Thamasha.

Debutant Ashraf Hamza is writing and directing the film in which Vinay is supposedly playing a teacher. Grace Antony, who played the wife of Fahadh Faasil's character in Kumbalangi Nights, has been cast as the female lead.

Rex Vijayan and Shahabaz Aman are handling the music, while Shafique Mohamed Ali is in charge of editing. Muhsin Parari, who directed KL10 Pathi and co-wrote Sudani from Nigeria, has penned the lyrics.
