Cinema VinesIndian filmmaker Luv Ranjan has revealed the first official poster for his upcoming friendship‑comedy, Pehla Pyaar Doosri Baar. The eye‑catching image showcases six fresh faces who will all be making their cinematic debuts, including Alisha Chopra, Sparsh Walia, Sakshi Vaidya, Kunal Vaid, Sargun Kaur Luthra and Tushar Chhibber. The poster, released on social media, presents the newcomers in a colourful, playful setting that hints at the film’s light‑hearted tone.
The project is helmed by first‑time director Anuj Saini and is being produced by Luv Ranjan together with Ankur Garg under the banner of Luv Films. It is scheduled to hit theatres worldwide on 23 October 2026, giving audiences a full year to anticipate the debut‑packed lineup.
Ranjan, who has a track record of launching new talent—most notably with Pyaar Ka Punchnama—expressed enthusiasm about the venture. He said, “Introducing newcomers is always a challenge, but it’s the one I genuinely look forward to. Fifteen years ago, I got that opportunity with Pyaar Ka Punchnama, and when something similar came along with Pehla Pyaar Doosri Baar, I knew I didn’t want to let it pass. As a writer, creating a world for six new faces and watching them find their own rhythm within it was something I really enjoyed. When the people feel right, the story finds its own energy, and I’m excited for audiences to meet them.”
The poster’s composition brings the six actors together at the centre of the frame, each striking a distinct pose that reflects their individual styles. The vibrant backdrop and youthful energy suggest that the film will focus on the dynamics of friendship and first love, themes that have resonated with Ranjan’s audience in the past.
With the release date set for 23 October 2026, Pehla Pyaar Doosri Baar is poised to offer a fresh take on the rom‑com genre while giving a platform to a new generation of performers. Fans can look forward to seeing how Ranjan’s storytelling prowess translates into a fresh ensemble cast and a story that promises to be both relatable and entertaining.
