Ayushmann Khurrana to star in YRF, Posham Pa's next film 'Mupapa', release in 2027
Mumbai, July 1
Actor Ayushmann Khurrana is all set to star in 'Mupapa', the Yash Raj Films' first theatrical collaboration with Posham Pa Pictures.
The film will be produced by YRF's CEO Akshaye Widhani.
Set to be directed by Sameer Saxena, 'Mupapa' has been described as a genre-bending theatrical film, promising to deliver an incredibly new visual experience for people in theatres.
As confirmed by a YRF spokesperson, 'Mupapa' is set to release on February 19, 2027. One of the most forward-thinking voices in Indian entertainment, Posham Pa Pictures, along with YRF, is aiming to produce disruptive and immersive theatrical experiences for today's audience. This partnership is in line with Aditya Chopra's vision to build out a new creative business model under the company's CEO, Akshaye Widhani, who is strategically building out the studio model within Yash Raj Films as a producer.
Notably, the project marks Akshaye Widhani's second film as a producer after the Mohit Suri-directed romance, 'Saiyaara'.
On the work front, Ayushmann Khurrana was last seen in 'Pati Patni Aur Woh', also starring Sara Ali Khan, Wamiqa Gabbi and Rakul Preet Singh in lead roles.
The film also features Vijay Raaz, Tigmanshu Dhulia, Ayesha Raza and Durgesh Kumar in pivotal roles.

YRF teaming up with Posham Pa sounds promising. Sameer Saxena is known for quirky content. But releasing in 2027? That’s a long wait. Hope the hype doesn’t fade.
Finally YRF trying something new with Posham Pa! Ayushmann is the perfect actor for experimental films. But Akshaye Widhani needs to prove himself as producer—Saiyaara was average at best.
Posham Pa is great at making out-of-the-box content. Mupapa sounds intriguing! But why wait until 2027? Are they planning something huge? Hope Vijay Raaz gets good screen time.
Not sure about this. Ayushmann is trying to reinvent himself after some flops. A 2027 release is risky; audience tastes change fast. Let’s see if this disruptive vision works.
As an Indian cinema fan abroad, this sounds exciting! YRF and Posham Pa are a bold combo. But 2027 release? That’s like waiting for a Hollywood sequel. Hope it’s worth it!
Posham Pa + YRF = perfect match for experimental cinema! Ayushmann is back with his signature quirky choices
