Rajkummar Rao recently shared his enthusiastic reaction to the trailer of Vir Das’s upcoming film, "Happy Patel: Khatarnak Jasoos," generating further buzz around the quirky spy comedy. The movie, directed by and starring Vir Das, promises a blend of humor, madness, and youthful energy, as showcased in the recently released trailer.

Rao, known for his versatile performances across genres, expressed his excitement for the film, stating that it "looks so much fun." This endorsement from a fellow actor of Rao's caliber highlights the anticipation surrounding "Happy Patel: Khatarnak Jasoos".

The trailer introduces Vir Das in an unconventional avatar as an imperfect and accidental spy whose mission spirals into chaos. Packed with eccentric moments, twists, and tongue-in-cheek humor, the preview suggests a film that doesn't take itself too seriously while embracing its offbeat tone. Mona Singh appears in a striking role, marking a departure from her earlier on-screen portrayals, while Mithila Palkar adds a distinct charm to the narrative. Adding further intrigue is Aamir Khan's special appearance.

"Happy Patel: Khatarnak Jasoos" marks Vir Das's second collaboration with Aamir Khan Productions, following "Delhi Belly". Aamir Khan Productions is known for backing unconventional yet impactful cinema, such as "Lagaan", "Taare Zameen Par", "Dangal" and "Secret Superstar".

The film's promotional campaign has been generating considerable attention. A recent video showed Aamir Khan playfully "beating up" Vir Das after the comedian jokingly referred to "Laal Singh Chaddha" as a flop. Salman Khan also amplified the film's buzz by resharing the promo. Vir Das embraced the attention, calling the on-screen beating "worth it".

Vir Das is not only starring in "Happy Patel" but also directing it. The film is slated to release in theaters on January 16, 2026.
