Producer Karan Johar has blocked the Christmas 2016 weekend for a film directed by ‘Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani’ director Ayan Mukherji.

Johar made the announcement on Twitter earlier today.

“AYAN MUKERJI’s next for Dharma productions is slated to begin mid next year and release December 23rd,2016. RANBIR KAPOOR and ALIA BHATT…” Karan tweeted.

The yet-to-be-titled film will feature Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt for the first time.

The shooting of the film will begin mid-2015 and release in theatres on 23rd December 2016.

There have been reports that the movie will belong to the superhero genre with death-defying stunts and mind-boggling action sequences. It could also be a part of a trilogy, but all that is speculation for now.

  • so now we will see clashes nd moving release dates in d next 2 years…as we saw wid bombay velvet…coz d movies staring hrithik , aamir nd salman are stil to be announced

  • KARAN JOHAR the most intelligent producer in the industry today ,his films are declared hit in casting itself…RANBIR & ALIA together its like dream come true for every bollywood fans

  • I don’t understand these decisions of booking the holiday release dates much before the start of the shooting itself, Christmas is more than 2 years away, now someone is gonna announce the Diwali 2017 release soon so they don’t get left behind.
    I think Aamir is gonna crash Ranbir’s party again. I actually want to see some clashes after this year.

  • Hmm..That’s Good..
    I think Another rom-com is coming on Dec 2016..
    Alia Bhatt is now popular..And after couple of years she became Star..Matching her status with Ranbir..

  • I have heard that this is a Mythological Superhero film . Ayan Mukherji is a talented director . WUS was a brilliant film but YJHD was nice not brilliant . Ranbir and Alia will be interesting to watch . But, Personally i don’t think Ranbir has the personality, Physique and Attitude to play a superhero . I also think Ayan cannot direct a superhero film . But i am happy that something new is happening in Bollywood .

  • This is simply an extraordinary newz.the creator of youngistaan-SIR RANBIR KAPOOR will break all b.o. records and gift indian cinema its first 500cr nett collting film.remember last yr both yjhd and crap besharam had bumper opening.sir ranbir’s stardom will also bcm bigger after blockbuster peeformances of bombay velvet and jagga jasoos.so it will dfntly take historic ooening,around 55cr 1st day.also since ayan is directing the film and kjo is producing it so it will dfntly b a superb film like wake up sid and yjhd.plus its of superhero action genre so even c centre audiences will love it

    FIRST 500CR MOVIE-RANBIR’S DIWALI DHAMAKA

  • 2017 Diwali is the day when youngistaan will b officially taking over entire Bollywood under the leadership of our guru-SIR RANBIR KAPOOR.khans will gradually start retiring from their glorious career and 2017-2027 period their will b an intense fight bywn sir ranbir and hrithik for no.1 position while my 6 youngistaan members will occupy the 3rd to 8th position in star ranking.

    Thanx ayan and kjo for this announcement.

  • @ Arjun Kapoor i appreciate the way you support youngsters but sometimes i think you get overboard 500 crores for a Ranbir Kapoor movie its fine but are you 100% sure that movie will release in Christmas 2016 . Also Ranbir has to yet prove himself in Action Genre so Superhero Genre is a long way to go . I agree with you @ Rohit it is absurd that producers book Holiday release dates 2 years in advance . But, in reality anything can change . So what is the use of all this ?

  • I want srk,salman,aamir and hrithik to set some huge b.o. records because it will b fun to watch SIR RANBIR breaking them one after another on diwali 2016.

  • New Bollywood culture to book the release date even before the start of pre-production. Anyhow, it is only an announcement, lots of thing will change prior to release. Some will postponded or preponded, some unexpected movie will come. But it is true, getting harder to get a holiday release for small movies.

  • Sounds good. As for physique, well, what physique did Toby Macguire had for Spiderman?

    It needs to be convincing for any role to be accepted.

    Ranbir and Alia will create a great jodi.

    Also, read how KJo had left srk and now working with Salman, Akshay and Aamir along with the young brigades. Is this true Indicine?

  • I am eagerly waiting for PK…bcoz after that i think Aamir will be seen in 2017…

    There are reports that Aamir might play villain’s role in Rajnikanth’s ROBOT 2…

  • @ARJUN KAPOOR bhai kuch bhi …..(300,325,350….500)

  • @indicine sir as you said all weekends till 2016 are booked with no srk movie but still srk will come later on with his movies on major weekends only (like eid diwali ) and other ones will have to shift their release dates (except salman,aamir,hrithik) what u think indicine ?
