Popular Pakistani comedy franchise Jawani Phir Nahi is back with its 3rd instalment; Jawani Phir Nahi Ani 3 (JPNA 3) is officially in production.

The upcoming movie will feature some of the familiar faces of the franchise like Humayun Saeed, Ahmed Ali Butt, Vasay Chaudhry and Fahad Mustafa, who will be coming back to their iconic roles.

Fans are already buzzing about the prospect of a new comedy-filled journey, thanks to the stellar performances of these beloved characters coming together again.

The third instalment is set to continue the franchise’s signature mix of slapstick, quick wit, crazy scenarios and funny action.

But a few things are certain: Sarwat Gilani will not be a part of JPNA 3. She has previously spoken about the differences and the concerns of the lesser screen time allocated to her character in the previous movies.

The new movie will come out nearly 8 years after Jawani Phir Nahi Ani 2, which was one of the top-grossing Pakistani films of the year.

To add to the scale of the film, Humayun Saeed has confirmed that some parts of the film are to be shot in the United States.

The international locations are expected to bring the latest addition an even larger cinematic flair.

The fact that it features the same cast, is shot abroad and has a similar comedic tone makes Jawani Phir Nahi Ani 3 a much-anticipated comedy movie that Pakistani cinema is expecting in 2026.
