Varun Dhawan-Sharvari starrer Luka Chuppi 2 pushed by 6 months due to Shraddha Kapoor’s Eetha

As per original plans, pre-production of ‘Luka Chuppi 2’ was to begin in early 2026. But the buzz in the industry is that the Varun Dhawan and Sharvari-starrer has now been pushed by nearly six to eight months. Reason? From what we’re told, it’s director Laxman Utekar’s packed slate.
Utekar, who had helmed Kartik Aaryan and Kriti Sanon-led ‘Luka Chuppi’ in 2019, is currently neck-deep in the shoot of ‘Eetha’, his biopic on Tamasha artiste Vithabai Bhau Mang Narayangaonkar.
A source told mid-day, “Laxman is completely tied up with the Shraddha Kapoor film right now. ‘Eetha’ is demanding his full attention, and he doesn’t want ‘Luka Chuppi 2’ to feel rushed or compromised. After he wraps up ‘Eetha’ by mid-2026, he will train his focus on the rom-com’s sequel.”
The lead actors too have a busy date diary. While Dhawan is expected to begin work on ‘Bhediya 2’, Sharvari is currently filming for Sooraj Barjatya’s ‘Yeh Prem Mol Liya’. The source added, “A final call on the story and timeline will be taken in late 2026.”
Luka Chuppi 2 to revolve around divorce ‘sah parivar’

BOMBAY TIMES (September 28, 2019)
After exploring the idea of living-in with the family, the makers of Luka Chuppi are planning to make a sequel to the romantic comedy. And this time around, the idea is to delve into the complexities of divorce in a family set-up.
Post the release of the first instalment of the film, the lead actress, Kriti Sanon, had hinted at the possibility of Luka Chuppi 2. Now, producer Dinesh Vijan has also confirmed that it is on the cards.
He told BT, “It is currently being written. The idea is to push the envelope and play around the theme — divorce sah parivar. The couple is divorced, the family doesn’t know it and the chaos that ensues because of this complex, yet funny situation... It’s a good time to think about what the trend in the content space will be like in a year or 18 months down the line. We will take roughly a year to write the film and then take matters forward.”
Elaborating on the sequel, the filmmaker added, “While we’ve seen many films revolving around live-in relationships, we infused the family angle in Luka Chuppi, which made it more accessible to the audience. It was treated in a way that worked well with the viewers. So, our intention is to make Luka Chuppi 2 just as accessible with a twist. We also plan to rope in the previous cast, along with new faces in the sequel.”
