Ayushmann Khurrana and Sara Ali Khan’s Fresh Pairing: Will Pati Patni Aur Woh Do Shatter Summer Box Office Records?
The "spiritual successor" to the 2019 hit is
finally ready to spark a laughter riot. Filmmaker Mudassar Aziz has
officially locked the release date for his next comedy-drama, Pati Patni
Aur Woh Do. Starring the fresh and exciting pairing of AyushmannKhurrana and Sara Ali Khan, the film is set to hit theaters globally
on Friday, May 15, 2026.
The announcement, made on April 18, 2026, came with a quirky
new poster that has already sent fans into a tizzy, showcasing Ayushmann
Khurrana in a hilariously "hunted" avatar.
A New Twist on a Classic Formula
While the 2019 film featured Kartik Aaryan, Bhumi Pednekar,
and Ananya Panday, Pati Patni Aur Woh Do (stylized as Pati
Patni Aur Woh 2) takes a "spiritual sequel" route with an
entirely new cast and a modern perspective on middle-class relationships.

Poster Reveal: The latest poster features Ayushmann Khurrana’s
character, Prajapati Pandey, trapped in a net with a predatory leopard
nearby. The caption reads: "Shikari khud Ho Gaya Shikaar!"
(The hunter has become the hunted), hinting at a plot where the
protagonist's schemes backfire spectacularly.
- The
"Woh" Factor: This time, the "complications" are
multiplied. Alongside Sara Ali Khan, the film features a stellar female
ensemble including Rakul Preet Singh and Wamiqa Gabbi,
making it a true comedy of errors.

balance domestic bliss with external "distractions" leads to a
chaotic web of lies.

every frame is packed with seasoned comic timing.
