Ravi Kishan is set to return to the big screen withBhabiji Ghar Par Hain! Fun on the Run, a film inspired by the immensely popular television showBhabiji Ghar Par Hain. In an exclusive interview with IndiaToday.in, the actor spoke at length about his character, the making of the film, and his aspirations for Bhojpuri cinema.

In the film, Ravi Kishan plays Shanti, a one-sided lover — a role he describes as deeply innocent and emotionally rooted in real-life experiences from Bihar and Uttar Pradesh. Drawing parallels with people he has known personally, the actor said such lovers often spend their entire lives waiting for someone they once loved, never choosing marriage or moving on. For Ravi, this authenticity made the character relatable and emotionally fulfilling to portray.

Known for playing loud and brash characters, Ravi admitted this role was a departure from his usual on-screen persona. He explained that he gravitates towards characters inspired by people he has encountered in real life, adding that Shanti felt familiar and honest. He also describedBhabiji Ghar Par Hainas a cult classic, making the film adaptation an exciting project to be part of.

Talking about the film’s appeal, Ravi highlighted the importance of comedy in difficult times. He noted that people are burdened with stress and responsibilities, and a well-timed comedy with a meaningful message can offer much-needed relief. He credited writer-director Shashank Bali, who envisioned the story for nearly a decade, and expressed gratitude to Zee for bringing the project to life.

The actor revealed that the entire film was shot in just 17–18 days through meticulous planning and efficient execution. With over 30 million views already across digital platforms, Ravi believes the film could recover its costs within the opening weekend. He also compared the project’s potential impact to small-budget success stories likeLaapataa Ladies, stressing the importance of allowing both large-scale and modest films to coexist in the industry.

Ravi praised the professionalism of the cast, particularly Asif Sheikh and the original TV show actors, who delivered near-perfect one-take performances due to their decade-long experience. He also commended co-actors Mukesh Tiwari and Brijendra Kala for their dedication and talent, noting that extensive rehearsals helped everyone bring their characters to life.

The interview also touched upon a near-fatal accident on the first day of shooting, when a massive uprooted tree narrowly missed Ravi and Asif Sheikh. Recalling the incident, Ravi credited divine grace for their survival, acknowledging it as a terrifying close call.

Looking ahead, Ravi Kishan reiterated his commitment to Bhojpuri cinema, expressing his desire to create a high-quality, National Award-worthy film for the industry. He emphasised that Bhojpuri gave him his identity and vowed to repay that debt by crafting meaningful cinema without focusing on commercial returns.

Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain! Fun on the Runis scheduled for a theatrical release on February 6, 2026.
