Stellar Cast Unites for a Cosmic Adventure
The cameras have officially started rolling on what promises to be one of the most intriguing comedy films of the year. “Rahu Ketu” directed by Vipul Vig, commenced filming on April 1, 2025, bringing together the dynamic trio of Varun Sharma, Pulkit Samrat, and Shalini Pandey in what’s being teased as a celestial comedy experience.

When Stars and Planets Align on Screen
“Some call it fate, we call it #RahuKetu ka khel! Aur yeh aapke life mein bhi jald hi pravesh karenge, shoot begins now,” declared Zee Studios in their official announcement, which was accompanied by vibrant images of the lead cast posing with the film’s clapperboard.
The title “Rahu Ketu” draws from Hindu astrology, where these shadow planets are believed to influence human destiny—suggesting the film will likely explore themes of fate, cosmic intervention, and perhaps the humorous chaos that ensues when celestial forces meddle in human affairs.
Reuniting Comedy Powerhouses
For fans of Indian comedy cinema, the reunion of Pulkit Samrat and Varun Sharma is particularly exciting. The duo previously showcased their exceptional comic timing and chemistry in the beloved “Fukrey” franchise, creating memorable moments that still resonate with audiences.
While Sharma has established himself as one of Bollywood’s most reliable comedy performers with his impeccable timing, Samrat brings his characteristic charm and energy to the project. Adding a fresh dynamic to this established pair is Shalini Pandey, who gained recognition for her performances in “Arjun Reddy” and “Jayeshbhai Jordaar,” and will likely bring her unique presence to this cosmic comedy adventure.

Zee Studios continues its tradition of backing innovative content with “Rahu Ketu,” adding to their diverse portfolio of productions that span across genres and styles.
What to Expect from the Celestial Comedy
While the filmmakers are keeping the storyline under wraps, the title and initial announcement suggest a narrative that might playfully incorporate astrological elements into a contemporary comedy setting. The film’s concept is already generating buzz among cinema enthusiasts who are intrigued by both the casting choices and the mysterious premise.
The production is expected to leverage the proven chemistry between Samrat and Sharma while introducing new dynamics with Pandey’s addition to the mix. If their previous collaborations are any indication, audiences can expect a blend of situational comedy, witty dialogues, and perhaps some cosmic mishaps along the way.
