Mumbai, June 15
The teaser of actor Shehnaaz Gill's upcoming film 'Ishqnama' was unveiled on Monday, giving viewers a first glimpse of the romantic drama that also stars Jayy Randhawa.
The teaser comes just months after the film's first poster was released and offers a glimpse into a cross-border love story set against the backdrop of conflict and separation.
In the teaser, Shehnaaz appears in a completely different look from her previous projects. The brief video shows her portraying a character caught between love and difficult circumstances, with several emotional moments hinting at the film's central storyline.
The teaser largely focuses on the relationship between Shehnaaz's character and Jayy Randhawa's role. While the makers have not revealed many details about the plot, the visuals suggest a story of love, longing and separation.
Take a look
Soon after the teaser was released, fans shared their reactions on social media, with many praising Shehnaaz's screen presence and emotional performance in the first look.
The first poster for the romantic drama was unveiled earlier this year. The poster offered a striking glimpse into Ishqnama's world - "a romance drama rooted in true events and unfolding against the fraught India-Pakistan backdrop," as per press note.
The poster showed Shehnaaz hugging an injured Jayy Randhawa, her expression heavy with pain, resilience and devotion, capturing a love bruised by conflict yet refusing to break.
Ishqnama is slated for a worldwide theatrical release on July 24, 2026.

Looks promising, but I hope they handle the India-Pakistan backdrop with sensitivity. These stories can either unite or divide. The teaser seems emotionally charged though, so I'm cautiously optimistic.
Bhai, the poster itself was so powerful - Shehnaaz hugging an injured Jayy really set the tone. This teaser just confirms it's going to be an emotional rollercoaster. Finally something meaningful from Pollywood! 🎬✨
Just saw the teaser - Shehnaaz's expressions are so raw and real. But I wonder if this is just another "love across the border" cliche or something fresh. The true events angle gives me hope though. Let's see what the full film delivers.
Tera baap bhi emotional ho jayega dekh ke! 😭 The teaser gave me chills - the music, the visuals, Shehnaaz's performance. Finally a film that might do justice to the real stories of love and separation across the border. July 24 can't come soon enough!
I appreciate the effort to tell a cross-border love story, but we've seen so many similar films before. The teaser doesn't show anything new yet. Hoping the full movie has more depth and doesn't just rely on the tragedy of partition for emotional impact.
