Deepika Padukone Unveils The New Release Date Of Gehraiyaan On Her Birthday

Gehraiyaan New Release Date: On her birthday, Deepika Padukone gave a "little birthday present" to all her fans by announcing the new release date of her upcoming modern-day relationship drama Gehraiyaan. A snippet of the film was released on December 20 and it was supposed to release on January 25.

Directed by Shakun Batra, Gehraiyaan features Padukone and Siddhant Chaturvedi in lead, alongside Ananya Panday and Dhairya Karwa. Due to a surge in Omicron and COVID-19 cases, many Hindi films have postponed their release, due to a disruption of post-production and fear of theatres being shut down again. While Gehraiyaan is having an OTT release, its release too seems to have been impacted by the pandemic.

Deepika Padukone, who was last seen as Romi Devi in the film 83 and produced it, shared a post on Instagram revealing the latest scheduled date for the release of the show. "A little birthday present for all the love you have showered us with! (emoji) #GehraiyaanOnPrime releasing 11th February! @karanjohar @apoorva1972 @shakunbatra @ajit_andhare @siddhantchaturvedi @ananyapandey @dhairyakarwa @primevideoin @dharmamovies @Viacom18Studios @Jouska.films @sonymusicindia," she wrote.

Along with the announcement, she shared six posters of the film featuring all the four main leads and text messages between couples- Alisha and Zain, Zain and Tia, Alisha and Karan.

Karan Johar, who is the producer of the film, too posted the same posters with a different caption, "We can see the shore, till then we'll dive into your love! #GehraiyaanOnPrime releases February 11."

The director of the film Shakun Batra wrote in his post, "Life is good and it does get better when you wait, but for now here is something for you!" On the other hand, Ananya Panday shared the new release date and two stills from the film with the caption, "Waving hello to 2022 with love and there's more to come! (wave emoji)"

The shooting for the film commenced in 2020 and it has been shot in Goa, Mumbai and Alibaug. The teaser was a huge hit with the fans. Karan Johar, while talking about the film, said, "Gehraiyaan is an intense, real and honest observation of modern relationships and Shakun has done a phenomenal job of portraying the complexities of human emotions. That, combined with the cast's earnest and powerful performances, make the film a truly compelling story."

Gehraiyaan will be streaming on Amazon Prime Video.
