The trailer of the upcoming spy comedy Udta Teer, starring Ayushmann Khurrana and Sara Ali Khan, released on Tuesday. Directed by debutant Akash A Kaushik, the film is produced by Dharma Productions and Sikhya Entertainment. It is scheduled to release in cinemas on October 9, 2026.
Ayushmann Khurrana plays Bilal, a Pakistani spy who suffers memory loss after an explosion and starts believing he is an Indian counter-terrorism officer. Sara Ali Khan plays a CTS operative. The film's tagline reads, "Deshbhakti toh yaad hai… par desh nahi." At the trailer launch in Mumbai, Ayushmann called it "India's first patriotic comedy."
When asked about a possible release in UAE-GCC countries, where films with India-Pakistan themes have faced censorship, producer Guneet Monga Kapoor said the film is going through censors and they will see. The supporting cast includes Rahul Bose, Ram Kapoor, Gulshan Grover, and Raghubir Yadav.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The coverage across sources is uniform straight reporting. Bollywood Hungama and Odisha TV both describe the plot, cast, and release date neutrally. Bollywood Hungama's report from the trailer launch adds a significant detail about potential release hurdles in the Gulf, while Odisha TV focuses on the comedy and Ayushmann's upcoming projects. The absence of any critical or political framing is notable for a film about a Pakistani spy. The key development to watch is the censor board's decision in the UAE-GCC, which will determine the film's market access in the region.
