Prime Video has also spoken about the film and its young cast, highlighting the energy they bring to the project. The streaming platform has described the story as a light hearted look at the complicated and often confusing experiences that come with growing up.
The film’s new cast is one of its key highlights. Aarushi Bajaj, Bianca Arora, Piyush Khati and Ansh Duggal will be seen leading the story, with the experienced supporting cast adding to the ensemble.
With its focus on friendship, love, heartbreak and personal growth, Don’t Be Shy is positioned as a young adult romantic comedy rather than a traditional romance. The film aims to explore the lighter and more emotional sides of growing up while keeping its story grounded in everyday experiences.
Don’t Be Shy will be available to stream on Prime Video from September 25, 2026. The release will introduce the four young lead actors to a wider OTT audience while adding another title to Alia Bhatt’s growing list of production projects.
