Varun Dhawan's upcoming film 'Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai', which also stars Mrunal Thakur and Pooja Hegde, is set for a theatrical release on June 5. The film is expected to face tough competition at the box office as Ram Charan and Janhvi Kapoor's 'Peddi' arrives a day earlier on June 4.
Producer Ramesh Taurani on the Box Office Clash
Reacting to the situation, producer Ramesh Taurani addressed ongoing speculation about whether the makers are considering postponing the release to avoid the clash. Taurani remains calm about the box office clash, choosing to view the packed release schedule as realistic. Speaking to Hindustan Times, he said, "Ab kya kar sakte hain, kuchh nahi. Koi na koi toh aayega hi. There are 52 weeks in a year, someone will clash. It's okay." When asked if 'Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai' might once again shift its release date, producer Ramesh Taurani ruled it out, stating, "Not at all."
Teaser Hints at Love Triangle
The teaser opens with AI-generated toddlers chatting about their parents, subtly pointing to the film's central love triangle.
