"a romance drama rooted in true events and unfolding against the fraught India-Pakistan backdrop - Press Note"

Mumbai, February 12

Punjabi actress-singer Shehnaaz Gill will be seen headlining a romantic drama titled 'Ishqnama'.

On Thursday, Shehnaaz took to Instagram and unveiled the first poster of the upcoming film, which is set to be released on July 24.

The poster offers 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.

In one image, Shehnaaz is seen hugging an injured Jayy Randhawa, her expression heavy with pain, resilience and devotion, capturing a love bruised by conflict yet refusing to break. In another visual, she appears in a bridal avatar, draped in the old Punjabi aesthetic, hinting at a love story shaped as much by sacrifice as by longing.

"First picture from My upcoming Movie....."ISHQNAMA" True Story of True Lovers NIMMA-NASIMA Releasing 24th july 2026 in Cinemas worldwide @arvindrkhaira @jayyrandhawa @saurabhsachdeva77 @jaani777 @bpraak @sourabh_rana #shehnaazgill," Shehnaaz posted on her Instagram handle.

Meanwhile, last year, Shehnaaz achieved a major milestone with the Punjabi film Ikk Kudi, marking her debut as a producer under Shehnaaz Gill Production. In 2023, she was featured alongside Salman Khan in 'Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan'.

The poster looks beautiful, and the old Punjabi aesthetic is stunning. But I hope the film handles the cross-border romance theme with sensitivity and doesn't romanticize the very real tensions. Fingers crossed for a good story.

Love stories across borders are always heart-wrenching. Reminds me of some classic Bollywood films. Hope this Punjabi film does justice to the genre. Shehnaaz is a hard worker, all the best to the team!

Interesting premise. "A love bruised by conflict yet refusing to break" – that's a powerful line from the article. Will be looking out for this in 2026. The production quality from her last film was good, so expectations are high.

Respectfully, I feel we've seen this plot many times before. Another star-crossed lovers story. I hope the 'true events' angle brings something fresh to the table. Her performance in 'Ikk Kudi' was decent, so let's see.

Waah! The bridal look is straight out of a dream. Shehnaaz Gill Production is doing great work promoting Punjabi cinema. Can't wait for July 2026! 🎬
