Rohit Saraf‘s new movie, Ishq Vishk Rebound, has been the talk of the town. Gearing up for its release this Friday, the movie has made headlines since its announcement. With a brand-new cast, a viral music album, and a Gen Z storyline, here’s everything you need to know about this much-anticipated film.
When will Ishq Vishk Rebound (2024) be released?
Ishq Vishk Rebound brings a Gen Z twist to the college romance genre, which first captivated audiences with the original Ishq Vishk nearly 20 years ago. The original, featuring Shahid Kapoor and Amrita Rao, was a defining film of its time. Now, Rohit Saraf, Pashmina Roshan, Jibraan Khan, and Naila Grewal aim to rekindle that magic with a modern touch. The film will officially release on June 21, 2024.
The first glimpse of the film came through a teaser released in May. This teaser introduced the Ishq Vishk Rebound cast, hinting at love stories that are anything but conventional.
The familiar notes of “Chot Dil Pe Lagi” played as viewers met the new cast. The teaser hinted at the complex dynamics between four friends navigating love, heartbreak, and rebound. Viewers will see Rohit Saraf paired with Naila Grewal and Jibraan Khan with Pashmina Roshan. The teaser concluded with a tense scene, hinting at the film’s central conflict: “Will you hold on or move on?”
The trailer, released soon after, provided a further sneak peek into the storyline, suggesting a film where college friends find themselves entangled in love triangles.
The trailer depicted a group of friends caught between friendship and romantic relationships. Rohit Saraf, Pashmina Roshan, and Jibraan Khan portray three friends, with Pashmina’s character dating Jibraan’s character. Meanwhile, Rohit’s character is seen in a relationship with Naila Grrewal’s character. As the couples break up, Rohit and Pashmina’s characters gradually fall for each other, despite Rohit’s skepticism about rebound relationships.

The cast of Ishq Vishk Rebound has generated a significant buzz. The film marks the acting debut of Pashmina Roshan, Hrithik Roshan’s niece. In addition, it features Jibraan Khan, known for his role as Shah Rukh Khan’s son in Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham. Furthermore, Rohit Saraf, popularly known for his role in Netflix’s Mismatched, stars alongside Naila Grewal of Maamla Legal Hai fame.
During the trailer launch, fans speculated about a potential cameo by Shahid Kapoor. Director Nipun Dharmadhikari teased, “You will know that on June 21,” leaving audiences intrigued.
Despite the shared title, Ishq Vishk Rebound is neither a sequel nor a remake of the original 2003 film. Rohit Saraf clarified, “It’s not a remake or sequel of ‘Ishq Vishk. The thing common between the two films is that they belong to the same franchise. But it’s a new story altogether, a love story about Gen Z.”
Director Nipun Dharmadhikari is making his Bollywood debut with Ishq Vishk Rebound. He is known for his acclaimed Marathi film Dhappa and for co-directing Netflix’s Mismatched.
The film has reportedly received a U/A certificate from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC), making it suitable for all age groups. However, the CBFC suggested blurring certain visuals and adding a disclaimer for scenes involving alcohol. The runtime of Ishq Vishk Rebound is just 1 hour and 46 minutes, making it one of the shortest Hindi films in recent times.
Coming to the music album, the reprised songs have been doing the rounds all over the internet. The title track, “Chot Dil Pe Lagi,” has garnered positive feedback. Shahid Kapoor himself praised the track “Ishq Vishk Pyaar Vyaar.” Sharing on Instagram, he mentioned, “21 years and the track still sounds fresh.” The album also features a contemporary take on the iconic song “Gore Gore Mukhde Pe Kala Kala Chashma.”
As Ishq Vishk Rebound’s release date approaches, the anticipation continues to build, promising a film that will appeal to both fans of the original and a new generation of viewers.
