Mrunal Thakur Pregnant Look Leaked from Sets with Varun Dhawan

New Delhi, February 6, 2026: The internet is buzzing following a major leak from the sets of David Dhawan’s highly anticipated romantic comedy, Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai. On February 5, 2026, a series of behind-the-scenes (BTS) clips and photos surfaced online, revealing a surprising look for leading lady Mrunal Thakur.

The actress, known for her versatile performances, was spotted on the streets of Mumbai sporting a prominent baby bump, sparking immediate speculation about the film’s plot.

A Protecting Hero and a Glowing Mom-to-Be

In the viral video, Mrunal Thakur is seen glowing in a soft pink maternity gown paired with a light blue cardigan. Walking alongside her is Bollywood’s favorite “student,” Varun Dhawan, who recently dominated the box office with his high-octane performance in Border 2.

Varun, dressed in a casual navy blue outfit, appeared to be in character as a protective partner, carefully holding Mrunal’s hand as they navigated a bustling street set. The chemistry between the two—teaming up for the first time—has already garnered “heart” emojis across social media platforms. Fans were quick to comment on the “sweet and protective” vibe Varun brought to the scene, while others praised Mrunal’s effortless pregnancy glow.

Directed by the master of comedies, David Dhawan, the film marks the fourth collaboration between the father-son duo after hits like Main Tera Hero and Judwaa 2. While plot details have been kept under wraps, the leaked “pregnant look” suggests that the movie explores the journey of a young couple facing the chaotic and comedic challenges of early parenthood.

The film boasts a stellar ensemble cast, including:

• Pooja Hegde (who was previously seen in a leaked song sequence recreating Chunnari Chunnari)
• Maniesh Paul
• Mouni Roy
• Chunky Panday
• Jimmy Shergill

Release Date and Anticipation

Initially slated for an April release, the makers have recently pushed the theatrical debut to June 5, 2026. This move gives the team more time to fine-tune the “drama and comedy” that the film’s tagline promises: “Drama bhi hona hai, comedy bhi.”

Varun Dhawan enters this project on the heels of a massive career high with the January 2026 release of Border 2, where he reportedly underwent grueling physical training and even sustained a tailbone injury during the filming of the “Battle of Basantar.” Transitioning from a war hero to a doting husband in a rom-com showcases his range, and fans are eager to see if this David Dhawan entertainer can recreate the 90s magic for a modern audience.

With the film’s music already making waves—including rumors of a high-energy dance number choreographed by Vijay Ganguly—Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai is shaping up to be the family entertainer of the summer.
