And, of course, having Karan Johar produce and Shashank Khaitan direct this project ensures that the film is filled with heart, laughter, and entertainment. I can't wait for people to experience the magic we've created.'

'Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari' is set to release on September 12. It is directed by Shashank Khaitan who is known for 'Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania', 'Badrinath Ki Dulhania' and 'Dhadak'.
