Film starring Irfan Khan’s son Babil Khan and Amrith Jayan releases on Netflix

Growing up with a sibling brings with it many gifts. It teaches one the ability to both deeply love and detest someone. To fight voraciously, but then to also go to any extent to come to their rescue or team up as one unit.

That unbreakable bond is precisely what audiences will witness in the upcoming film ‘Friday Night Plan’. This unforgettable journey of love and laughter has been directed by Vatsal Neelakantan and produced by Ritesh Sidhwani, Kassim Jagmagia & Farhan Akhtar , Excel Entertainment. Dive into a world of misadventures as the film streams on Netflix from 1 September, 2023.

In the movie, Babil Khan plays the nerdy older brother, and his character’s partner-in-crime is his mischievous younger brother, portrayed brilliantly by Amrith Jayan. Together, they are the ultimate duo, ready to conquer the coolest, most happening party of the year. “Having a younger brother in real life, this film feels so relatable to me. It’s a heartwarming journey that brings back fond memories of our own misadventures.
