Mumbai Turns Starry as ‘Ek Din’ Screening Brings Aamir Khan, Anil Kapoor & Bollywood Royalty Together

Mumbai lit up with cinema magic as Bollywood’s biggest names gathered for the special screening of the upcoming romantic drama Ek Din. The evening felt less like a formal event and more like a celebration of storytelling, as stars from different generations came together to witness a film already generating strong buzz ahead of its release.

The screening saw an impressive guest list led by Aamir Khan, alongside Anil Kapoor and Shabana Azmi. Adding a personal touch to the evening were Ira Khan and Junaid Khan, with Junaid stepping into the spotlight as one of the film’s lead actors. The presence of industry names like Imran Khan, Sona Mohapatra, Ram Sampath, Nupur Shikhare, and Lekha Washington made the night even more vibrant.

Directed by Sunil Pandey and produced by Mansoor Khan, Aparna Purohit, and Aamir Khan under Aamir Khan Productions, Ek Din is already being talked about as one of the most anticipated romantic films of 2026. The film marks a significant moment for the production house, blending emotional storytelling with a fresh on-screen pairing.

A major highlight of the film is the Hindi debut of Sai Pallavi, who stars opposite Junaid Khan. Known for her expressive performances in South Indian cinema, Sai Pallavi’s entry into Bollywood has raised expectations, especially for a film rooted in emotions and subtle romance.

Ek Din is an official remake of the acclaimed One Day, and revolves around Rohan, a quiet office employee secretly in love with his colleague Meera. Unable to express his feelings, his life takes a magical turn during a company trip to Japan when he gets one unexpected chance to spend a perfect day with her. What unfolds is a heartfelt story about love, timing, and the moments we often miss in silence.

With its simple yet emotional premise, the film promises to strike a chord with audiences who enjoy relatable love stories. The combination of a strong cast, soulful storytelling, and Aamir Khan’s production backing has already positioned Ek Din as a potential standout in the 2026 romantic drama lineup.

Originally scheduled for release in November 2025, the film is now set to hit theatres on May 1, 2026. If the buzz around its screening is anything to go by, Ek Din might just become one of those rare love stories that stays with audiences long after the credits roll.
