As the new year begins, an interesting and fresh story is emerging from Bollywood. Vipul Vig, the writer who crafted the chaotic world of the cult comedy franchise ‘Fukrey’, is now embarking on a new chapter in his career. This time, he will not only be behind the story but also behind the camera. His directorial debut, ‘Rahu Ketu’, is set to release in theaters on January 16, 2026.

The name Vipul Vig instantly brings to mind the quirky fun, eccentric characters, and desi humor of ‘Fukrey’ and ‘Fukrey 3’. He was the mastermind behind the most memorable antics and dialogues of those films. Now, with ‘Rahu Ketu’, he is bringing that same sharp humor, heart, and unique world-building to a brand new story.

‘Rahu Ketu’ is described as a comedy adventure inspired by folklore, blending humor with fantasy and a touch of Indian culture. The film promises not only to entertain but also to transport viewers to a world that is both familiar and distinct. Vipul Vig's writing has always been characterized by placing ordinary characters in extraordinary situations to create entertainment, and this is the flavor expected in his directorial debut.

The anticipation surrounding ‘Rahu Ketu’, releasing at the start of the new year, is palpable among both the industry and the audience. This film is not just a debut, but the next step in a creative journey where Vipul Vig will now bring his written chaos to life on screen. If everything goes as planned, ‘Rahu Ketu’ could be one of the films of the new year that delivers a powerful dose of laughter and imagination.
