David Dhawan has hinted that his upcoming film Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai could mark the tip of his directing profession.

David Dhawan hints at retirement, says ‘This is likely to be my last film’
Reflecting on his journey and current phase in an interview with ANI, Dhawan said, “I do not think I should do more. This is likely to be my last film. After this, I’ll just be Varun’s father,” indicating that he could also be able to retire from filmmaking. He also pointed to health concerns throughout the shoot, recalling, “I used to be very unwell throughout the shooting of this film. Varun took great care of me, he had all doctors’ numbers, stayed in contact with them, and was at all times there. He’s an entire family man.”
The filmmaker also spoke about working together with his son, emphasising that their personal bond doesn’t interfere with their skilled dynamic. “Once I’m behind the camera, he isn’t my son, he’s an actor. I just need the result,” he said, underlining his approach on set. Addressing how filmmaking processes have evolved, Dhawan added, “In our time, movies were made on trust. Even actors like Salman Khan or Govinda or Sanjay Dutt didn’t at all times hear full scripts. We narrated scenes, and that is how movies were made.”
He also praised Varun’s growth as an actor, particularly noting his emotional depth and calling his performance in Border 2 “good.” While there isn’t any official confirmation on his retirement, Dhawan’s remarks have sparked conversation about whether Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai may very well be his final film as a director.
