Furthering this creative and cultural collaboration, YRF announced that its relationship with the UK will deepen through a three-film production pact set to commence in 2026.

"Our partnership with India is delivering three new Bollywood blockbusters to the UK. That means more jobs back at home, and more films for us all to enjoy," Starmer posted on his Instagram.

Additionally, YRF is also currently producing the English-language stage musical adaptation of DDLJ, titled 'Come Fall In Love: The DDLJ Musical,' which celebrates the spirit of inclusivity and love beyond borders, an ‘East meets West’ story that continues to resonate with audiences worldwide.
