When Bollywood seems locked in a loop of high-voltage action and larger-than-life love stories, Rahu Ketu comes along like a much-needed breath of fresh air. Quirky, imaginative, and unapologetically different, the film promises to break away from the familiar and offer audiences something playful and unexpected.
Headlined by Pulkit Samrat and Varun Sharma, Rahu Ketu is set to release in theatres on January 16, 2026. The buzz around the film stems from its unusual mix of folklore, fantasy, and situational comedy—genres rarely explored together in mainstream Hindi cinema. Instead of loud spectacle, the film leans into clever humor and storytelling with personality.
Adding to the excitement is the reunion of Pulkit Samrat and Varun Sharma, who became fan favourites as Hunny and Choocha in the Fukrey films. While their chemistry remains intact, this outing places them in a completely different world. The laughs here emerge from folklore and myth-inspired situations rather than street-smart chaos, giving both actors room to experiment with a fresh comic rhythm.
Shalini Pandey brings a new energy to the narrative as the female lead, while Chunky Panday’s presence adds an extra layer of fun to the ensemble. Together, the cast helps balance the film’s fantastical elements with relatable, easy going performances.
Directed by Vipul Vig, Rahu Ketu blends light-hearted comedy with folklore-driven storytelling and subtle social cues, making it neither a loud masala film nor a heavy message drama. In a landscape dominated by formula-driven releases, its offbeat tone feels timely and refreshing.
At a moment when audiences are clearly hungry for variety, Rahu Ketu positions itself as a film that doesn’t try to shout for attention—it simply invites you in for a good time. Backed by Zee Studios and BLive Productions, the film hits cinemas on January 16, 2026, and could well turn out to be one of the most pleasantly surprising releases of the year.
