The teaser of the highly-awaited 'Carry on Jatta 4' starring Gippy Grewal and Binnu Dhillon in the lead role is finally out on Thursday. The movie is set to feature the historic on-screen recreation of the late Jaswinder Bhalla alongside the lead cast.

The film is directed by Smeep Kang and is set to take the audience on a laughter roller coaster ride on June 26.

In a heartfelt and unprecedented tribute, the teaser features late legendary comedy icon Jaswinder Bhalla in a special appearance, who passed away last year at the age of 65.

According to the press note by the makers, the recreation of actor Jaswinder Bhalla has been achieved through a meticulous blend of advanced VFX and CG techniques. The process spanned over six months, during which footage from one of his earlier films was carefully sourced and scanned to ensure an authentic and respectful representation.

The teaser was shared on the Instagram handle of Gippy Grewal. The video opens with Gippy and Binnu remembering the late actor. Soon after, Jaswinder Bhalla made a surprise return from the afterlife in the costume of a lawyer, signifying his presence in the film.

It was followed by the introduction of the cast, which includes Sargun Mehta, Karamjit Anmol, Shinda Grewal, Jasmine Bajwa, and Sweetaj Brar.

Gippy Grewal also paid tribute to the late actor by remembering the significance of Bhalla in the 'Carry On Jatta' franchise. He described the VFX recreation of the late actor as a "celebration" of the legacy for them.

"Jaswinder Bhalla paaji wasn't just an actor to us, he was family, a guiding light, and the soul of Carry On Jatta. Bringing him back, even for a moment, is emotional beyond words. Through Carry On Jatta 4, we haven't recreated him, we are celebrating him. His laughter, his energy, his spirit...they still live with us, and always will. This is our humble tribute to a legend who never really left us," said Gippy Grewal as quoted in a press note.

The tribute has been undertaken with the blessings and support of Mrs Bhalla, who has graciously extended her consent for this special homage to her husband's legacy, noted the press note.

'Carry on Jatta 4' is presented by Humble Motion Pictures FZCO and is produced by Gippy Grewal & Ravneet Kaur Grewal.

Wow! The fact that they took 6 months and got blessings from his family shows real heart. Bhalla ji's comedy is timeless. This has made me even more excited for June 26th. Carry On Jatta franchise is our family's favorite!

I have mixed feelings. While the intent is pure and the family's consent is key, I hope the VFX doesn't feel distracting or uncanny. Sometimes it's better to let legends rest and honor them with memories rather than digital recreations. Just my thought.

As someone who recently discovered Punjabi cinema, this is fascinating. It's a powerful use of technology to preserve an artist's legacy. Gippy Grewal's words about him being "family" really show the close-knit nature of the industry there.

Bhalla saab's lawyer avatar is iconic! 😄 This teaser brought back so many memories of watching the first Carry On Jatta with my cousins. A perfect blend of emotion and comedy. Punjabi cinema knows how to connect with its audience.

Heartwarming to see the entire team's effort. The press note mentioning Mrs. Bhalla's consent is the most important part. It shows respect. Hoping the movie lives up to the hype and does justice to his memory. Fingers crossed!
