Karan Johar set for return with KKKG-style family drama

5 Jan - It was rumoured that Karan Johar is set to make his directorial return with a new movie this year.

The director reportedly has already chosen the script of his liking to be made into a movie, which will be produced by his company, Dharma Productions.

The project is reportedly a family drama in the veins of his 2001 hit, "Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham". It will be his first since 2023's "Rocky aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani".

"After hitting the bullseye with a romantic family comedy in the form of Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani, Karan is returning to the family drama space with his next. Buzz is, it would be his biggest scale film till date, and Karan has brought in the New Year by locking the script of his next," said a source to Pinkvilla.

Karan reportedly will be emulating the formula of "Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham"

The source added that preproduction is scheduled to begin in mid-2026, and will star two male leads and two female leads.

"This will be the big-ticket marque from Dharma Productions scheduled for the theatrical medium," said the source.

No confirmation has been made by Karan Johar or Dharma Productions.
