Ayushmann Khurrana Mupapa Locks Release Date

Yash Raj Films and Posham Pa Pictures’ first theatrical collaboration is titled Mupapa, headlined by Ayushmann Khurrana. Produced by YRF CEO Akshaye Widhani and directed by Sameer Saxena, the genre bending film releases on February 19, 2027. This marks Akshaye’s second production after Saiyaara, the highest-grossing romantic film in Indian cinema.

The partnership aligns with Aditya Chopra’s vision to build a new studio model within YRF under Akshaye Widhani. Posham Pa Pictures, known for Kaala Paani and Maamla Legal Hai, brings a forward-thinking voice to the project. Together they aim to create disruptive, immersive theatrical experiences for audiences seeking fresh storytelling.

Mupapa promises an incredibly new visual experience designed to keep viewers at the edge of their seats. Ayushmann, celebrated for content disruption, leads this edge-of-the-seat thriller about a common man thrust into a nightmarish race-against-time scenario. Shooting began quietly in Kerala in April 2026.

Sameer Saxena makes his theatrical feature debut after Netflix’s Kaala Paani, joined by Posham Pa partners Amit Golani, Biswapati Sarkar, and Saurabh Khanna. The ensemble largely features lesser-known actors to heighten suspense. With YRF’s legacy and Posham Pa’s acclaimed OTT slate, Mupapa targets a unique, engaging theatrical event unlike anything before.
