The much-loved romantic comedy Pati Patni Aur Woh (2019), starring Kartik Aaryan, Bhumi Pednekar, and Ananya Panday, is finally getting a sequel after six long years. However, this time, there’s a surprising twist that has left fans buzzing!

On the occasion of Dhanteras, T-Series officially announced Pati Patni Aur Woh Do, revealing a brand-new cast and storyline. In a shocking change, Ayushmann Khurrana has stepped into the shoes of Kartik Aaryan, taking over the lead role. The announcement may have disappointed Kartik’s fans, but it has certainly raised excitement for what’s to come.

Ayushmann Takes Over as the New ‘Pati’

The poster unveiled by T-Series features Ayushmann Khurrana as Prajapati Pandey, the new face of chaos and comedy. Unlike the original, where Kartik’s character juggled between a wife and one girlfriend, this time the drama doubles up — Ayushmann’s character will be caught between two girlfriends while still managing his wife!

The makers teased fans with the caption, “Har pati ka apna ek duniya hota hai — usse dukh milta hai, par humein hasi!” (Every husband has his own world — it may bring him pain, but it gives us laughter!).

Meet the New Leading Ladies

In this hilarious sequel, Sara Ali Khan, Wamiqa Gabbi, and Rakul Preet Singh join the cast as the female leads, replacing Bhumi Pednekar and Ananya Panday. The trio’s chemistry with Ayushmann promises fresh energy and fun-filled entertainment.

Release Date Revealed

Fans won’t have to wait too long — Pati Patni Aur Woh Do hits theaters on March 4th, 2026, perfectly timed with the Holi celebrations. With its colorful release date, quirky storyline, and Ayushmann’s impeccable comic timing, the sequel is expected to deliver a riot of laughter and love triangles gone wild!
