Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions is all set to bring back the iconic Dostana franchise with a fresh twist, nearly 18 years after the original hit the big screens. Titled Dostana 2, the film is being designed as a full-on theatrical entertainer packed with music, comedy, romance, and drama.
Slated for a release in cinemas at the end of 2026, the project is currently in the pre-production stage and will begin filming in January 2026. Dostana 2 will see Vikrant Massey and Lakshya in the lead roles. The film will also serve as the launchpad for a fresh face, with a debutant actress playing the female lead.
