Hrithik Is All Praise For Vir Das’s ‘Happy Patel’

Actor Hrithik Roshan is full of praise for Vir Das’s directorial debut ‘Happy Patel’, appearing highly impressed by the spy comedy. Taking to his Instagram story, Hrithik penned a heartwarming note for Vir and extended his congratulations.

“Very very entertained by HAPPY PATEL. Congrats VIR. The ingenuity of mixing incredible silliness with a relentless screenplay was so much fun to watch!” the ‘War 2’ star wrote.

A delighted Vir Das reshared the warm review on his Instagram handle, hailing Hrithik’s support as he offered a subtle nod to the actor’s role in Yash Raj Films’ Spy Universe.

“Hrithik – May every comedy lover and first time Filmaker find a star like you. You are magic on screen and it falls on all of us smaller sillier spies too! Thank you,” the actor-comedian wrote.

‘Happy Patel: Khatarnaak Jasoos’ is a quirky, offbeat spy, which also stars Mona Singh, Sharib Hashmi and Srushti Tawade, along with special appearances by Aamir Khan and Imran Khan.

Vir Das is in the lead role as an agent sent on a mission in India.

The trailer hilariously shows Vir Das’s character failing to assemble a rifle while also forgetting to include the trigger. It was followed by a confidential mission assignment in Goa. Unknown to the culture and traditions of India, Vir Das faces numerous problems, ranging from being tortured by Mona Singh’s character to fighting Imran Khan in a slow-motion aerial battle.

Aamir Khan also plays a cameo in the movie.

The film is produced by Aamir Khan under the banner of Aamir Khan Productions.

‘Happy Patel’ opened in theatres on January 16, 2026. (ANI)
