Filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s upcoming romantic drama Do Deewane Seher Mein, starring Siddhant Chaturvedi and Mrunal Thakur, is officially set to release on February 20, 2026, just in time for Valentine’s Week. The announcement has generated buzz among Bollywood fans who are eager to see a fresh on-screen pairing in a film rooted in classic romance.
A Tale of Contemporary Love With Old-School Charm
Directed by Ravi Udyawar, the film is described as a “contemporary romance with old-school sensibilities.” Producers at Zee Studios and Bhansali Productions have highlighted that the movie aims to bring back the sincerity, simplicity, and heartfelt emotions of traditional Hindi love stories—elements that have become rare in today’s fast-paced cinematic landscape.
