The much-anticipated trailer for the upcoming Bollywood comedy film 'Rahu Ketu' has finally dropped, and it promises a laugh riot from the very first frame. The film reunites the popular duo of Pulkit Samrat and Varun Sharma, setting the stage for a hilarious cinematic experience.
A Hilarious Introduction to Mythological Mayhem
The trailer opens with the powerful and recognisable narration of veteran actor Piyush Mishra, who begins to recount the ancient tale of Rahu and Ketu. However, the tone quickly shifts from epic to playful. The film then introduces its modern-day protagonists, Rahu and Ketu, portrayed by Pulkit Samrat and Varun Sharma. Both actors are seen in a state of endearing confusion and innocence, their silly expressions and clumsy body language immediately establishing the film's lighthearted and comedic mood.
The Dynamic Duo's Chemistry Steals the Spotlight
The undeniable chemistry between Pulkit Samrat and Varun Sharma is the heart of the trailer. Their bond feels natural and effortless, reminiscent of their successful collaboration in the 'Fukrey' series. The preview shows them as two well-meaning but perpetually unlucky individuals who stumble into trouble without even trying. Their perfect comic timing, clueless reactions, and shared camaraderie generate most of the laughs, suggesting the film aims to be a pure, stress-busting entertainer.
In a statement to ANI, Pulkit Samrat highlighted this connection, saying, "This film captures everything audiences loved about 'Fukrey'. Most importantly, it brings the two of us together again, and we had a fantastic time working on it. That joy and camaraderie truly come through on screen." He also confirmed that the film is written by Vipul Vig, the writer behind all three 'Fukrey' films, who also directs 'Rahu Ketu'.
Social Media Erupts with Excitement and Praise
Upon its release on Instagram, the trailer was met with an outpouring of love from fans. The makers used a playful caption in Hindi, translating to: "An age-old story. Two characters, half-demon, half-god, sensible! The new year will change everyone's destiny and direction! Get ready to meet #RahuKetu in cinemas near you from 16 January 2026!"
The comment section was quickly flooded with positive reactions:
- "Too funny!! So excited for this! Can’t wait for the 16th!"
- "You brighten up the screen."
- "Your laughter is my favorite sound!!!"
- "Fantastic."
- "Duo Always Rock."
The overwhelming response clearly indicates strong audience anticipation for the reunion of the comic pair. 'Rahu Ketu' is scheduled for a theatrical release on January 16, 2026, and aims to offer audiences a simple, joyful, and laughter-filled ride.
