Shashank Khaitan’s Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari is all set to release on October 2, 2025. The film stars Varun Dhawan, Janhvi Kapoor, Rohit Saraf, and Sanya Malhotra in the lead roles. The trailer and the songs of the movie have created a good pre-release buzz. The Free Press Journal recently interacted with Shashank and spoke to him about the film, casting, the clash with Kantara Chapter 1, and more.

Q. We have seen Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor together in Bawaal, which was a very different romantic film. So, what made you cast them together in this film?
