Ibrahim Ali Khan and Khushi Kapoor star in the upcoming Nadaaniyan, a young adult romantic drama that captures the magic, madness, and innocence of first love. At its heart are Pia, a bold and spirited girl from South Delhi, and Arjun, a determined middle-class boy from Noida. As their two completely different worlds collide, they embark on a journey filled with mischief, heart, and the sweet messiness of first love.
Produced by Karan Johar, Apoorva Mehta, and Somen Mishra, the film is Shauna Gautam’s directorial debut.
The director said, “Directing Nadaaniyan has been an incredibly special journey for me, especially as my first film. This story is close to my heart, capturing the innocence and often surprising nature of first love. Collaborating with Karan sir and Dharmatic Entertainment has been a dream, and their support has been invaluable in bringing this vision to life. Working with such an amazing cast, particularly Ibrahim in his debut role, has been an absolute joy. I can’t wait for audiences to witness this fun, heartfelt ride on Netflix”
Nadaaniyan takes you on a journey through the exhilaration and unforgettable experience of falling in love for the first time. The film follows Pia, a South Delhi girl determined to script her perfect love story, and Arjun, a middle-class overachiever with his sights set on becoming the debate team captain. Their worlds collide when Pia ropes Arjun into a transactional arrangement—posing as her boyfriend to pull off a romantic facade. But things get complicated when real feelings sneak in, making the duo wonder if love can ever be scripted.
The trailer just dropped, and we have your first look at the film, which will be released on Netflix on March 7th!

This film introduces a fresh, dynamic pairing with Ibrahim and Khushi, while also marking the exciting debut of Ibrahim.
