The trailer of Happy Patel: Khatarnak Jasoos is finally out. It promises a madcap ride powered by humour, chaos and heart. This wild ride is directed by Emmy-nominated comedian Vir Das in his directorial debut and produced by Aamir Khan Productions. The film is set for a theatrical release on January 16, 2026.
The trailer was unveiled on the official YouTube channel of Aamir Khan Talkies as well as on social media platforms. The film also marks Vir Das’ second collaboration with the banner after Delhi Belly.
Vir Das stars as Happy Patel, a self-proclaimed international spy with unmistakable Indian roots and a knack for landing in trouble. Described as “a chef, an agent (kind of), a hero (probably),” Happy finds himself facing violence, the Goa Police, and an unexpected romantic turn. Mithila Palkar stars opposite him, while Vir’s straight-haired, Bob Dylan-esque look adds to the film’s offbeat nature.
The ensemble cast includes Mona Singh, Sharib Hashmi, and Srushti Tawade. Mona Singh takes on a brand new avatar as she plays a strikingly raw, gangster-like avatar.
The end of the trailer teases a character played by Aamir Khan. He is seemingly in a spirited and completely different role.
As a treat to fans, the film also marks the much-awaited theatrical comeback of Jaane Tu… Ya Jaane Na actor Imran Khan. He is returning to the screen after over a decade. His last release was Katti Batti opposite Kangana Ranaut in 2015.
Co-directed by Kavi Shastri and co-written by Amogh Ranadive, the film leans into bilingual humour and playful satire, cheekily flipping the popular meme by suggesting that “India is for beginners.” The trailer hints at a perfectly imperfect spy story that doesn’t take itself too seriously.
