On Tuesday, the film's makers took to social media to announce this exciting new venture. The announcement featured an adorable illustration of a couple taking a selfie, perfectly capturing the essence of warmth and intimacy that fans can expect from this romantic tale. The note accompanying the illustration read: "Phantom Studios & AGS Entertainment announce the theatrical release of our film about love, likes & everything in between. Khushi Kapoor... Junaid Khan... 07.02.2025."
The post was further captioned with a bold reminder: "SAVE THE DATE!!! 7-2-2025," signaling the importance of this special date for Bollywood fans. Khushi reshared the post on her Instagram Stories with the message: "See you soon!"
Khushi's elder sister, Janhvi Kapoor, was quick to express her excitement, commenting on the post with an affectionate: "U so cute like a laddoo... can't wait.. I love u Khushu." Other family members and celebrities, including her cousin Shanaya Kapoor and actress Huma Qureshi, also chimed in to congratulate Khushi, further building excitement for this highly anticipated film.
According to reports, the film is said to be a remake of the 2022 Tamil blockbuster 'Love Today,' which was both starred in and directed by Pradeep Ranganathan. The original film garnered significant success for its portrayal of modern love and relationships, and fans are eager to see how this Hindi adaptation will fare.
Director Advait Chandan is no stranger to delivering hit films. He previously directed the Aamir Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan-starrer 'Laal Singh Chaddha,' an adaptation of the Hollywood classic 'Forrest Gump.' With his experience and the chemistry between Khushi and Junaid, expectations for this upcoming film are sky-high.
Khushi Kapoor, the daughter of legendary actress Sridevi and filmmaker Boney Kapoor, is quickly carving her own path in Bollywood. She made her student acting debut in the 2016 YouTube short film 'Bhasm Ho: Pyaar Ka Takraar,' which showcased her early talent.
In 2023, Khushi made her official Hindi film debut with 'The Archies,' where she portrayed the character Betty Cooper. Directed by Zoya Akhtar and co-produced with Reema Kagti, the film also starred a talented ensemble cast including Agastya Nanda, Suhana Khan, Vedang Raina, Mihir Ahuja, Aditi "Dot" Saigal, and Yuvraj Menda. The teen musical comedy premiered on Netflix, marking a significant milestone in Khushi's career.
Khushi's filmography continues to grow, as she is set to appear in Dharma Productions' 'Naadaniyaan,' opposite Ibrahim Ali Khan (son of actor Saif Ali Khan). Fans are eager to see how she further establishes her presence in Bollywood with each new project.
On the other hand, Junaid Khan, son of Bollywood star Aamir Khan and Reena Dutta, made his acting debut with 'Maharaj.' Directed by Siddharth P. Malhotra and produced by YRF Entertainment, the film also stars Jaideep Ahlawat, Shalini Pandey, and Sharvari. The film, set in 1862, is based on the real-life Maharaja Libel Case, in which a religious leader takes legal action against a newspaper. The film is currently streaming on Netflix, giving Junaid a strong start in the industry.
Junaid's Bollywood journey doesn't stop there. He also has an untitled project lined up with renowned actress Sai Pallavi, which was shot in the scenic location of Sapporo, Japan. His versatility as an actor and upcoming roles promise to showcase his talent and further solidify his place in Bollywood.
The untitled film is expected to delve into the intricacies of modern love and relationships, much like its Tamil predecessor 'Love Today.' With Khushi and Junaid leading the cast, the audience can expect fresh, youthful energy combined with heartfelt performances. The film's central theme will explore the dynamics of love, likes, and everything that lies in between, promising an engaging narrative for the audience.
As the release date draws nearer, anticipation continues to build for this exciting project. Mark your calendars for February 7, 2025, when Khushi Kapoor and Junaid Khan's on-screen chemistry is set to light up the big screen, bringing with it a new era of Bollywood romance.
