"One day, he is told that to get a baby brother, his parents will have to kiss. Since his quarrelling parents won't kiss any longer, little Thomas takes it upon himself to make them do the yucky act!" the movie's synopsis reads.
Meanwhile, Speaking about the movie, Rasika Dugal shared, “It is a movie which is committed to the soul of its story without resorting to unnecessary frills. There are also such few films being made for children today, particularly films that don’t talk down to them. I feel Little Thomas fills that gap in a very lovely way — it’s a children’s movie, but one that adults can enjoy just as much.”
Notably, Calling Little Thomas a movie inspired from his childhood, director Kaushal Oza, shared, “My team and I had a ball shooting it thanks to the infectious enthusiasm the kids brought on the set. And their chemistry shows on the screen. Thomas will make you smile, make you laugh, and even shed a tear or two.”
As per the latest buzz, Producer Ranjan Singh shared Little Thomas is a movie the team made to "remind us why we make films."
In further updates, "It’s such an innocent and fun story of a boy and his adventures to find the answer for his one question. In an age of fast cuts, and high on adrenaline films, this is a simple, sweet movie which every family member can watch and should watch it together," Singh shared.
