Are you ready for a fresh dose of 90s-style Bollywood magic? Fans are losing it after Varun Dhawan shared a cozy new photo with Mrunal Thakur, giving us a first look at their chemistry in the upcoming rom-com Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai. Directed by the king of comedy, David Dhawan, this film marks the first time these two are sharing the screen. While Varun recently teased a poster with Pooja Hegde, it’s this new “dreamy” shot with Mrunal that has everyone guessing about the love triangle. Mrunal even confirmed she’s finished dubbing for the movie, so the countdown to the trailer has officially begun!
Will this June release be the summer’s biggest hit? Mark your calendars for June 12, 2026, because the Dhawans are bringing back the high-energy family entertainers we’ve been missing. The movie was originally supposed to drop earlier, but the makers pushed it back a week to avoid a massive box-office clash—a classy move that’s winning hearts in the industry. With a huge cast including Maniesh Paul and Mouni Roy, plus rumors of remixed classic hits, Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai looks like the perfect mix of nostalgia and modern romance. Can Varun and Mrunal recreate that old-school Bollywood spark? All signs point to a definite yes!
