The teaser for 'Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai,' starring Varun Dhawan alongside Pooja Hegde and Mrunal Thakur, has faced significant backlash since its release. Directed by David Dhawan, this film marks the fourth collaboration between father and son and is scheduled to hit theatres on May 22, 2026. The teaser opens with two AI-generated toddlers discussing their families, which has led to widespread criticism on social media. Viewers have expressed disappointment over the use of AI, with some calling it 'cringe' and likening the film to Govinda's Sandwich, a classic comedy. Critics argue that Bollywood's increasing reliance on AI and remakes detracts from original storytelling. Despite the negative reactions, the teaser has managed to attract attention, hinting at a chaotic and humorous love story typical of David Dhawan's style. As more content is expected to be released, it remains to be seen if the film can overcome the initial backlash.
