More about the film

\n
\nProduced by Aamir Khan Productions, Happy Patel is helmed by Vir Das and represents his second partnership with the studio following Delhi Belly. Happy Patel is scheduled for theatrical release on January 16, promising a loud, silly, and fun-filled beginning to the year. \n
\n

Did Aamir Khan remove Vir Das's song from Delhi Belly out of envy?

\n
\nIn a recent conversation with Farah Khan on her cooking YouTube channel, Khan suggested that the song Jaa Chudail from Delhi Belly was shortened because Aamir’s track was next in line. \"Aamir cut it out of envy,\" she joked. Vir playfully attempted to defend the official reasoning. \"But I was informed there were pacing concerns,\" he remarked.\n
\nThe film’s trailer and music have already heightened the anticipation.\n
