Ginny Wedss Sunny 2 poster: Avinash Tiwary does the heavy lifting for Medha Shankr in quirky first look; release date announced

Official announcement of Ginny Wedss Sunny 2 has been made following the OTT success of the first installment in the romantic comedy series. The first look poster was launched today and the film will officially be released nationwide on April 24, 2026.

Who are the new faces leading the franchise?

The first 2020 film, which premiered on Netflix and starred Vikrant Massey and Yami Gautam, is drastically different from the sequel. Medha Shankr (12th Fail) and Avinash Tiwary (Laila Majnu, Madgaon Express) will be leading the cast of the second installment, which features fresh lead pairing for the franchise.

A new poster suggests a "twist" to the tried-and-true Rishta (relationship) formula. It shows a ripped Tiwary doing push-ups on a set of dumbbells as Shankr sits securely on his back wearing a beautiful red saree. The poster paint a picture of a thematic clash between the two characters, with Shankr depicted as carefree and possibly naughty and Tiwary as a strong-willed, disciplined figure.
