The much-anticipated first look of Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai has finally been unveiled on April 14, and it guarantees a full-blown dose of entertainment, romance, and signature comedy. Marking the return of veteran filmmaker David Dhawan, the film starring Varun Dhawan, Pooja Hegde, and Mrunal Thakur seems to hold all of the ingredients of a classic Bollywood crowd-pleaser.
Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai First look: Varun Dhawan is caught in a double love twist with Pooja Hedge and Mrunal Thakur
Interestingly, this outing marks David Dhawan’s forty sixth directorial enterprise, and he reunites with producer Ramesh Taurani and Suggestions Movies to deliver what appears to be a high-energy entertainer full of humour and drama. The primary look opens on a unusual and unexpected note. Told from the attitude of two toddlers, the narrative device immediately adds intrigue and a playful tone, setting the stage for what follows.
Because the teaser unfolds, it steadily introduces the film’s vibrant world and its lead characters— Varun Dhawan is seen as Jass, while Mrunal Thakur and Pooja Hegde step into the roles of Bani and Preet, respectively. The teaser hints at a classic case of romantic chaos, with Varun’s character seemingly caught in a sophisticated love triangle. Adding to the intrigue, the toddler narration suggests a “double trouble” situation, implying dual identities or overlapping relationships, a trope often related to David Dhawan’s brand of storytelling.
The visual tone of the primary look is shiny, vibrant, and unapologetically larger-than-life, aligning perfectly with the filmmaker’s legacy of delivering mass entertainers. Complementing the visuals is the film’s pulsating title track, which hints at yet one more chart-topping album—continuing the successful musical collaboration between David Dhawan and Suggestions.
At a time when audiences are increasingly looking for light-hearted, escapist cinema, Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai positions itself as a feel-good theatrical experience designed to bring back the enjoyment of big-screen Bollywood.
Backed by Suggestions Movies Ltd and co-produced by Maximillian Movies (UK), the film is slated for a theatrical release on May 22, 2026. If the primary look is anything to go by, this might well be one of the crucial entertaining releases of the summer.
