Directed by and starring Vir Das, with co-director and co-star Kavi Shastri alongside Mona Singh, the spy comedy centers on Das as a bumbling detective navigating chaotic adventures. Aamir Khan also makes an extended cameo, lending his perfectionist flair to the offbeat storytelling while poking fun at conventional film promotions. The trailer’s tongue-in-cheek approach recalls the viral genius of campaigns like PK’s alien reveal, promising both laughs and meta-commentary for fans.
The film’s January 16, 2026 release positions it as a playful alternative to the month’s typically serious releases. With Vir Das’s Emmy-honed humor, Mona Singh’s comedic timing, and the production’s signature Aamir touch, Happy Patel looks set to entertain audiences seeking a lighthearted blend of spy antics and Bollywood parody.
The promo’s combination of comedy, quirky visuals, and self-aware nods to industry tropes has already sparked chatter online, highlighting the movie’s potential as a fresh, fun ride for cinema-goers craving something different in the new year.
