Director Mudassar Aziz is back with Pati Patni Aur Woh Do, a full-blown family comedy headlined by Ayushmann Khurrana, Sara Ali Khan, Wamiqa Gabbi, and Rakul Preet Singh, set to release in theatres on May 15, 2026 — just ahead of its much-anticipated trailer drop.
Pati Patni Aur Woh Do is a situational comedy that blends classic desi humour with a modern sensibility. The film builds on a legacy of relatable, slice-of-life storytelling, promising audiences a rollercoaster of confusion, chaos, and laugh-out-loud moments rooted in everyday relationships.
Presented by Gulshan Kumar, B R Chopra, and T-Series, the film is a T-Series Films and B R Studios production, produced by Bhushan Kumar, Renu Ravi Chopra, and Krishan Kumar, with creative production by Juno Chopra
Mudassar Aziz, best known for his sharp comic writing and direction, says Ayushmann was a natural fit for the film’s lead role of Prajapati Pandey.
“I believe Ayushmann Khurrana is the nation’s favourite ‘good man in a situation,'” Aziz said. “His excellence has shone through his work over the decade in this genre. I am proud to bring to his audiences an Ayushmann who this time is also the solution to his own situation.”
This marks a notable evolution in Ayushmann’s screen persona — moving beyond the typical underdog arc to a character who drives his own resolution.
Managing multiple characters across a situational comedy is no small feat, and Aziz addressed the challenge head-on.
“Holding multiple character arcs in situational comedy requires effort in first devising a gripping screenplay,” he explained. “To not get carried away by gags, but rather to put characters in situations, allows them to retain their arcs.”
He also credited his cast generously. “I’m blessed I worked with six or seven fantastic actors on this one — and that is their credit as much as mine.”
With a multi-starrer ensemble, a director with a proven track record, and a release window targeting peak summer footfalls, Pati Patni Aur Woh Do is shaping up as one of Bollywood’s major mid-year offerings.
The film leans into nostalgic, rooted comedy while amplifying the madness through quirky characters — a combination that has consistently driven family audiences to theatres.
