Zee Studios will distribute T-Series' upcoming comedy Pati Patni Aur Woh Do, releasing May 15 in cinemas, a cross-studio arrangement industry sources describe as only the second of its kind between the two companies, the prior instance being Jhund in 2022. The collaboration has drawn attention in trade circles precisely because such distribution tie-ups between rival production and distribution houses are uncommon in Bollywood's typically siloed release ecosystem. The film, produced by T-Series' Bhushan Kumar and B R Studios' Renu Ravi Chopra with creative production by Juno Chopra, stars Ayushmann Khurrana, Sara Ali Khan, Wamiqa Gabbi, and Rakul Preet Singh. It is directed by Mudassar Aziz, who previously helmed the 2019 original Pati Patni Aur Woh, which collected Rs. 86.89 crores at the box office. A teaser is expected within a week, and Zee Studios branding is set to appear across all forthcoming marketing assets. The film had originally been slated for a March 4 Holi release before its date shifted to May 15, placing it in what is shaping up as a comedy-heavy 2026 theatrical calendar.
