The much-anticipated romantic comedy Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari, starring Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor, will now hit theaters on September 12, 2025, shifting from its original April 18 release due to production delays. Directed by Shashank Khaitan—known for Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania, Badrinath Ki Dulhania, and Dhadak—the film promises a vibrant mix of romance and humor, backed by producers Karan Johar, Hiroo Yash Johar, Apoorva Mehta, and Khaitan himself.
The star-studded cast includes Sanya Malhotra, Rohit Saraf, Akshay Oberoi, Abhinav Sharma, Maniesh Paul, and Manini Chadha, adding depth to this ensemble. This marks the second collaboration between Varun and Janhvi after their 2023 hit Bawaal, directed by Nitesh Tiwari, heightening fan excitement. With Karan Johar’s rom-com expertise steering the project, expectations are soaring for a colorful, crowd-pleasing tale.
Varun recently teased the film’s festive spirit, sharing an Instagram reel from the sets featuring a Holi song shoot. Drenched in colors alongside co-star Maniesh Paul, he danced shirtless in his vanity van, captioning it, “Happy Holi… straight from the sets of #sunnysanskarikitulsikumari bts can’t wait for you to hear our new holi song. Sooon.” The clip, with Maniesh jokingly chiding Varun for outdoing him in the color chaos, offered a playful peek into the film’s lively vibe.
Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari blends Johar’s signature flair with Khaitan’s knack for heartfelt narratives, promising a September release packed with music, romance, and revelry. As production wraps up, the delay only amplifies anticipation for this star-driven celebration of love and sanskar, poised to light up screens in 2025.
