Filmmaker Sooraj Barjatya and producer Mahaveer Jain have formally announced the title and release date of their forthcoming project. The film, now officially titled ‘Yeh Prem Mol Liya’, is slated for a theatrical release on November 27, 2026. This marks Barjatya's return to the director's chair following his critically acclaimed work on 'Uunchai'.
The cinematic endeavor features a pairing of National Award-winning actor Ayushmann Khurrana and emerging talent Sharvari. This collaboration represents a significant moment for both performers, positioning them within the distinct narrative space associated with Barjatya's directorial signature. The film is described as a musical family entertainer, a genre with which Barjatya has long been associated through his extensive filmography.
Production Details and Collaborations
Filming for 'Yeh Prem Mol Liya' commenced on November 1, 2025, in Mumbai. Recent reports indicate a week-long shoot for the film's initial song, which took place in Kandivali, Mumbai. This involved a large ensemble cast and extensive background dancers, suggesting a significant scale for the musical sequences. The project also marks a reunion between Barjatya and composer Himesh Reshammiya, who previously collaborated on 'Prem Ratan Dhan Payo'.
The production is a joint venture between Rajshri Productions and Mahaveer Jain Films, strengthening a partnership previously solidified by their work on 'Uunchai'. This alliance aims to leverage the established sensibilities of Rajshri Productions with the contemporary appeal of its lead actors.

Artistic Direction and Thematic Resonance
'Yeh Prem Mol Liya' is anticipated to embody the quintessential 'Rajshri' style, characterized by its emphasis on tradition, family values, and emotionally resonant storytelling. This approach, however, is expected to be infused with the modern outlook of its younger lead cast. Ayushmann Khurrana, known for his roles in films exploring relatable human experiences, is reportedly portraying a character described by himself as a "green flag," implying a positive and grounded persona.
The film's title, 'Yeh Prem Mol Liya', is expected to offer insight into its thematic core, aligning with Barjatya's consistent focus on the emotional landscape of his narratives. This is a departure from the prevalent trend in Hindi cinema towards action-heavy spectacles and franchise-driven stories.
Cast and Previous Speculation
In addition to Khurrana and Sharvari, the film's cast includes veteran actors Anupam Kher, Seema Pahwa, and Supriya Pathak in significant roles. Previously, the project was rumored to be under titles such as 'Prem Ki Shaadi' before the official confirmation of 'Yeh Prem Mol Liya'. The production has generated considerable interest, with glimpses of Khurrana and Sharvari filming at a railway station having circulated on social media platforms.
