The film adaptation of the popular sitcom Bhabhi Ji Ghar Pe Hai, titled Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain! Fun on the Run, released in theatres on February 6, 2026. The release generated curiosity among fans of the long-running show. Expectations were high due to the sitcom’s loyal following.
The film was announced by Zee Studios in early 2025. It promised to take the show’s trademark chaos to the big screen. The makers aimed to blend familiar comedy with unexpected twists.
Directed by Shashank Bali, the film reunited the core cast. The story once again unfolds in Kanpur’s Modern Colony. The setting stays close to the show’s original world.
Shubhangi Atre reprises her role as Angoori Bhabhi. Aasif Sheikh returns as Vibhuti Narayan Mishra. Rohitashv Gour once again plays Manmohan Tiwari.
New additions include Ravi Kishan, who plays a key antagonist. His character forces a marriage with Angoori. Mukesh Tiwari appears in a supporting role.
The film is produced by Binaiferr Kohli under Edit II Productions, along with Zee Studios and Zee Cinema. The makers aimed to preserve the show’s original flavour. Reports claim the film was shot in just 20 days.
The storyline focuses on high-energy comedy with a horror-infused track. Spooky elements and dual climaxes were added for unpredictability. These creative choices were meant to elevate the big-screen experience.
However, critical reception has been largely lukewarm to negative. Many reviewers felt the sitcom’s episodic charm did not translate well into a feature film. The humour was seen as stretched.
The Times of India called the film crowded and mostly flat. The review criticised its overuse of toilet humour and innuendo. It concluded that the film failed to recreate the magic of the TV series.
Koimoi echoed similar views. It noted that despite a potentially decent plot, the film lacked consistent comic punch. The laughs were described as sporadic.
Firstpost observed that some formats work better on television. While it acknowledged familiar slapstick moments, it felt the humour often seemed forced.
Overall, the film caters mainly to die-hard fans of the show. Familiar catchphrases like “Sahi pakde hain!” draw nostalgia. For wider audiences, the humour feels repetitive and low on freshness.
