Junaid Khan and Sai Pallavi starrer Mere Raho may be pushed from its April 24 release date to July 2026. The reason behind this possible delay is Salman Khan’s Battle Of Galwan, which is locked for release on April 17.
The love story produced by Aamir Khan Productions has been keeping its release plans under wraps. However, reports suggest that the makers are now considering a summer 2026 window for better breathing room at the box office.
Crowded April Release Window Causing Concerns
Mere Raho was initially locked for April 24, 2026. The makers felt it would be an ideal time for the romantic film to hit cinemas. However, the announcement of Battle Of Galwan on April 17 has reportedly changed the equation. The Salman Khan starrer is expected to dominate screens across the country.
Adding to the challenge, May 1 will see the release of Raja Shivaji and The Devil Wears Prada 2. This means Mere Raho would have limited screen availability if it sticks to the April date.
July Window Offers Better Opportunities
Reports suggest that July offers better opportunities for a film like Mere Raho. The summer corridor allows the film to breathe without the noise that comes with festive and holiday rush periods. A romantic drama needs time to build through word of mouth and repeat viewings.
The controlled screen density in July could work in favour of the Junaid Khan and Sai Pallavi starrer. The film is expected to rely on positive reviews and audience recommendations rather than blockbuster opening numbers.
First Look Teaser May Come With Happy Patel
Aamir Khan Productions is releasing Happy Patel Khatarnak Jasoos starring Vir Das on January 16. There is hope that the production house will attach the first look teaser of Mere Raho with the prints of this comedy. This would give audiences their first glimpse of Junaid and Sai Pallavi together on the big screen.
The producer has been very secretive about the final release date. Whether Mere Raho arrives on April 24 or moves to July remains to be seen.
Sai Pallavi’s Hindi Debut Creates Excitement
Mere Raho marks Sai Pallavi’s Hindi film debut, which has created tremendous excitement among fans. The actress will also be seen in the highly awaited Ramayana releasing on Diwali 2026. Her pairing with Junaid Khan has been generating buzz ever since images from the Japan schedule leaked in early 2024.
The love story was shot during the beautiful Snow Festival in Sapporo, Japan, promising to be a visual treat for moviegoers.
About Mere Raho
Mere Raho is a love story starring Junaid Khan and Sai Pallavi, produced by Aamir Khan Productions. The film is reportedly a remake of the Korean film One Day (2011) and was shot in Japan and Mumbai. Originally planned for Valentine’s Day 2024, the film has seen multiple date changes. It may now release in July 2026 to avoid clashing with Salman Khan’s Battle Of Galwan. More official announcements about the release date are awaited.
