Every Friday, we all question and think, 'if this will work or not.' This is a David Dhawan film and made on his conviction to make you laugh If my family has had one motto, it's been to make people laugh. My father has only one motto that he wants to make people laugh."David Dhawan is the brain behind some of Hindi cinema’s most memorable comedies like Raja Babu, Aankhen, Coolie No. 1, Biwi No. 1 and Partner, many of which featured Govinda in lead roles.

He said, "He has been a great son first, I would say. He has always looked after me, my health, anything, you know. He is always there, standing by. And in the hospital also, he used to sleep there with me. When I was in the hospital. So, you know, what more do you want here?" Actor toh he is improving, he has become what you want, he can give you that. Wo theek hai. But as a father, if I tell you, I mean, everybody should have a son like that."About Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona HaiHai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai is produced by Ramesh Taurani under the banner of Tips Films and co-produced by Gaurav Bose of Maximilian Films.
