RSVP & Roy Kapur Films’ Pihu to release on 28th September

National Award-winning filmmaker Vinod Kapri's much-awaited film Pihu has finally booked a date for its theatrical release. After premiering at the International Film Festival of India (IFFI) 2017, the film will hit screens on 28th September.

Well-known film journalist and critic, Taran Adarsh announced the official release date of the film on his Twitter handle, where he wrote, “#Pihu to release on 28 Sept 2018... Directed by Vinod Kapri... Produced by Ronnie Screwvala, Siddharth Roy Kapur and Shilpa Jindal.”


Pihu is a quite special movie because it is headlined by a two-year-old child. Yes, you heard that right. What is even more surprising is that she is the only character in the film.

To get into the skin of the show, the little girl stayed in the same apartment where the film has been shot, along with her family.

Pihu has been bankrolled by RSVP & Roy Kapur Films.
