Varun Dhawan’s upcoming film Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai is back to its original release date of 5 June 2026. Earlier, the film was moved to 22 May, but the makers have now decided to stick with the first plan.
Directed by David Dhawan and produced by Ramesh Taurani under Tips Films, the movie also stars Mrunal Thakur and Pooja Hegde alongside Varun. It’s co-produced by Maximilian Films, which adds an international backing to the project.
The poster has already given audiences a taste of what’s coming — a bright, over-the-top comedy filled with chaos and fun. Varun is shown in the middle of a humorous setup with baby strollers around him, while the rest of the cast appears against a warm sunset city backdrop. Overall, it clearly leans into a light, family-friendly entertainer full of confusion, romance, and comedy.
Online reactions have been a bit mixed, with some people wondering about the film’s promotional buzz. There’s also been speculation that the date change could be to avoid a clash with another film, Chand Mera Dil, though nothing has been confirmed by the makers.
This film also reunites Varun Dhawan with his father David Dhawan, a duo known for delivering big, mass-market comedy entertainers. The film aims to blend old-school humor with modern relationship drama in a familiar David Dhawan style.
Now locked for 5 June 2026, the film is expected to kick off the summer box office season with a mix of comedy, romance, and family entertainment.
