Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai Trailer Finally Unveiled

The trailer for Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai, which was initially postponed due to a supposed technical issue, was released on Saturday. This comedy film stars Varun Dhawan alongside Mrunal Thakur, Pooja Hegde, Mouni Roy, Jimmy Sheirgill, Rakesh Bedi, Maniesh Paul, and Chunky Panday. The plot centers around love and marriage, featuring Varun's character navigating a separation from his wife and entering a new relationship. Both women in his life become pregnant, leading to a chaotic situation where he wishes to be with both. This premise has raised eyebrows among viewers, especially considering that Mouni Roy, at 40, plays the mother of 39-year-old Varun Dhawan.

The trailer has elicited a variety of responses online. While some fans praised Varun for reviving the comedic hero vibe, others expressed their discontent. One user remarked, "What was that? A man juggles two relationships and both women are eager to marry him. What message is Bollywood sending with such absurd narratives?" Another user criticized the portrayal of infidelity, stating, "Should we really laugh at a married man getting his wife and girlfriend pregnant? This is not comedy; it's problematic." A third user questioned the relevance of such themes in 2026, noting the age gap between Varun and Mouni and the film's reliance on remakes of classic songs.

Many took to social media to comment on Mouni Roy's portrayal of Varun's mother in the film. The trailer suggests a humorous tone, with Varun's character requesting a mother figure reminiscent of Nirupa Roy, only for Mouni to make a dramatic entrance. Her comedic lines have generated buzz, but the age difference between her and Varun has become a focal point of discussion among viewers.

Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai, directed by David Dhawan, is scheduled to hit theaters on June 5.
