Earlier, Varun Dhawan confirmed that the film will now arrive in theatres on June 5, 2026, returning to its original release date after a series of changes. The film's release had gone through multiple shifts in recent weeks. It was initially set for June 5, then moved to June 12 after Yash announced 'Toxic' for a June 4 release. Later, the makers surprised fans by preponing the film to May 22. Now, with 'Toxic' moving away from that slot, Varun's film has settled back on its first planned date. Sharing the update on Instagram, Varun posted a vibrant new poster and thanked Yash and Maddock Films for helping make the schedule reset possible.In his caption, the actor wrote, "JUNE 5TH 2026 in theatres. Thankful to @thenameisyash and @maddockfilms for helping us reset the calendar, as our film Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai will now release on its original date. The first film to release post IPL."

For Varun, the film also signals a return to the romantic-comedy space that has often worked strongly in his favour with audiences. It is expected to be his second release of the year after Border 2.
