One Month to Go! Sooraj Barjatya’s ‘Yeh Prem Mol Liya’ Brings Diwali Safai, Family Fun and Festive Nostalgia to the Big Screen

With Diwali preparations underway and just one month remaining until its theatrical release, Sooraj R. Barjatya’s upcoming family entertainer Yeh Prem Mol Liya is bringing audiences a delightful reminder of what makes Indian festivals truly special: family, togetherness and the little traditions that turn everyday moments into cherished memories.

Featuring Ayushmann Khurrana and Sharvari, the film captures the unmistakable spirit of pre-Diwali safai, the annual household cleaning ritual that signals the beginning of festive celebrations across India.

When Diwali Safai Becomes a Family Affair

From sweeping floors and dusting forgotten corners to bringing out the vacuum cleaner, Diwali cleaning is an experience familiar to millions of Indian households. While the task can sometimes feel like a marathon, having the entire family participate transforms it into an occasion filled with laughter, playful disagreements and shared memories.

The latest festive moment from Yeh Prem Mol Liya captures this familiar household energy, with Ayushmann Khurrana and Sharvari getting into the cleaning spirit alongside their family members.

The scene beautifully reflects the organised chaos of Indian homes preparing for Diwali, where everyone has a responsibility, every corner needs attention and someone is inevitably tempted to escape the workload.

The underlying message is refreshingly simple: Diwali preparations are not just about cleaning the house, but about creating time for the family.

Sooraj Barjatya Returns to the Heart of Indian Family Entertainment

The festive moment also reflects the storytelling sensibilities of Sooraj R. Barjatya, whose cinema has consistently celebrated Indian family traditions, relationships and emotional connections.

From Hum Aapke Hain Koun.. and Hum Saath-Saath Hain to Vivah, Barjatya’s films have explored the beauty of family life through celebrations, rituals and everyday interactions.

With Yeh Prem Mol Liya, the filmmaker once again taps into the emotional familiarity of Indian households, reminding audiences that the most meaningful festive moments often happen long before the celebrations officially begin.

The film’s festive appeal is further enhanced by music composed by Himesh Reshammiya, adding another dimension to this upcoming family entertainer.

Ayushmann Khurrana and Sharvari Lead the Festive Entertainer

Starring Ayushmann Khurrana and Sharvari, Yeh Prem Mol Liya is directed by Sooraj R. Barjatya and produced by Rajshri Productions in association with Mahaveer Jain Films.

With its emphasis on family relationships, festive traditions and togetherness, the film is poised to bring the familiar warmth of Rajshri storytelling to theatres this Diwali season.

The countdown has officially begun, with Yeh Prem Mol Liya scheduled to release theatrically on November 27, 2026.

Until then, Indian households have their own festive mission to complete: bring out the cleaning supplies, gather the family and get the home ready for Diwali.

Because when it comes to festive preparations, the best memories are often made together.

And this Diwali, the message from Yeh Prem Mol Liya is clear: saaf safai se parivaar ka time shuru!




There is a particular warmth that comes with a Sooraj Barjatya film, where romance rarely exists in isolation. Families, rituals, celebrations, relationships and music become part of the emotional landscape. The title track of Yeh Prem Mol Liya appears to embrace that familiar world while introducing Ayushmann Khurrana and Sharvari as a new generation of Prem and his romantic universe.

Directed by Sooraj R. Barjatya, Yeh Prem Mol Liya stars Ayushmann Khurrana and Sharvari in the lead, with Anupam Kher, Supriya Pathak, Seema Pahwa, Saumya Tandon and Swanand Kirkire among the supporting cast. The film is scheduled to release theatrically on November 27, 2026.

A Title Track That Understands the Barjatya Grammar

Composed by Himesh Reshammiya, written by Kumaar and sung by Shreya Ghoshal and Nihal Tauro, the title track is built around an uncomplicated idea: love that is celebrated rather than hidden.

The song moves through weddings, family gatherings, mehndi, sehra, festive processions and traditional celebrations, with Chhath also finding a place within the visual storytelling. Rather than presenting romance against a detached cinematic backdrop, the song places the relationship inside a larger family ecosystem.

That is where the track feels most aligned with Barjatya's filmmaking sensibility. The romance is personal, but the celebration is collective.

Himesh Reshammiya Brings the Melody Back Into Focus

The reunion between Himesh Reshammiya and Sooraj Barjatya carries its own significance. The two previously collaborated on Prem Ratan Dhan Payo, and Yeh Prem Mol Liya brings them together again after more than a decade.

The title track does not appear interested in reinventing the traditional Bollywood wedding song. Instead, it leans into melody, emotion and orchestral grandeur. The song was also launched with a live 25-piece orchestra at Mumbai's Royal Opera House, underlining the importance the makers are placing on music in the film's promotional campaign.

Shreya Ghoshal's vocals add the emotional polish expected from a large-scale romantic soundtrack, while Nihal Tauro complements the male vocal portions. Kumaar's lyrics keep the central sentiment direct rather than overly complicated.

Ayushmann and Sharvari Look at Home in the Festivities

Visually, Ayushmann Khurrana and Sharvari are surrounded by the familiar ingredients of a Rajshri celebration colourful décor, traditional attire, large family gatherings and elaborate wedding rituals.

What works particularly well is that the spectacle does not completely overpower the couple. Amid the large celebrations, the song makes room for glances, chemistry and quieter romantic moments between the two leads. That balance gives the song a sense of character rather than making it merely a wedding montage.

For Ayushmann, stepping into the character of Prem also carries an obvious legacy. The character has been strongly associated with Sooraj Barjatya's cinema, and this film introduces Khurrana as the latest actor to carry that name on screen.

What the Promotional Material Promises

The makers have revealed enough to establish the film's emotional world, while keeping the larger story relatively guarded. Based on the title track and available promotional information, Yeh Prem Mol Liya appears firmly positioned as a musical family entertainer rooted in romance, relationships and Indian traditions.

The production's scale is visible, but the more interesting aspect is its commitment to a cinematic language that has become closely identified with Barjatya: love surrounded by family.

The film is produced by Rajshri Productions and Mahaveer Jain Films, with Himesh Reshammiya handling the music. It is slated for a worldwide theatrical release on November 27, 2026.

The Verdict

The Yeh Prem Mol Liya title track feels less like an attempt to chase contemporary musical trends and more like a deliberate return to the pleasures of melody, romance and family celebration.

Whether the full soundtrack can sustain that feeling remains to be seen, but the first musical glimpse establishes a clear identity. It is colourful without losing its emotional centre, grand without abandoning the couple, and traditional without feeling disconnected from its new-generation cast.

For audiences who associate Sooraj Barjatya with music-led romance and family storytelling, Yeh Prem Mol Liya is already signalling that the old-school Bollywood celebration is very much alive.
