Ladaku gets a worldwide theatrical date
Kartik Aaryan and director Kabir Khan will reunite for Ladaku, which Birla Studios has scheduled for a worldwide theatrical release on June 18, 2027. The announcement on November 4 gives the project a title and a release date, with the actor returning to work with the filmmaker after Chandu Champion.

The project also gives Aaryan a role behind the camera as a producer. His banner, Dopamine Studios, is involved alongside Birla Studios and Kabir Khan Entertainment. The reports describe Ladaku as his production debut, making the announcement significant beyond the reunion of its leading actor and director.
Birla Studios is associated with Ananya Birla. Its collaboration with Khan and Aaryan brings the studio together with an established actor-director partnership, while adding Aaryan’s own company to the production arrangement.
