Jibraan Khan, who is best known for his role as a child actor in Karan Johar’s Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham (2001), is set to make his debut in a starring role in Tips Industries’ upcoming production venture, Ishq Vishk Rebound. As the title aptly suggests, Ishq Vishk Rebound is a spiritual sequel to the 2003 film Ishq Vishk, which launched the careers of Shahid Kapoor and Amrita Rao.
Jibraan played the son of Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol in K3G. Apart from SRK and Kajol, Jibraan also appeared alongside Farida Jalal, Hrithik Roshan, and Kareena Kapoor in several scenes. He has one of the most memorable scenes from the film to his credit where his character sings India’s national anthem during a school function, in the presence of hundreds of British children, surprising not only the crowd but his own parents.
After Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, Jibraan appeared in such unnoticeable films as Kyo Kii Main Jhuth Nahin Bolta (2001) and Rishtey (2002). Now, he is set to make his full-fledged debut as an adult actor.
He took to his Instagram account on Thursday to share an announcement video of the film, which also revealed the first look of the cast.
He captioned it, “Dreams do come true,” adding heart emojis.
He also shared the logline of the film which read, “When relationships can be found on apps, and lost over a chat, you know that love needs an upgrade. ISHQ VISHK REBOUND. It's time to move on.”
In addition to Jibraan Khan, Ishq Vishk Rebound will also mark the acting debut of Pashmina Roshan, daughter of music composer Rajesh Roshan and cousin of actor Hrithik Roshan. It will also star Rohit Saraf and Naila Grewal. Filming has begun and the makers are planning to release the film next year.
For those not in the know, Jibraan is the son of veteran actor Firoz Khan who shot to overnight fame after playing the character of Arjun in BR Chopra’s television series Mahabharat.

The singer jokingly texted Clairo saying, "Let's f**k her up," sparking an online frenzy
Why Charli XCX jokingly declared war on Peppa Pig after one viral comment
Highlights
What started as a playful celebrity game has turned into one of the internet's most unexpected viral moments, with Charli XCX jokingly threatening to "f**k up" Peppa Pig after the beloved cartoon character appeared to dismiss singer Clairo.
The exchange quickly spread across social media, drawing reactions from fans and fellow musicians, while turning an unlikely clash between a pop star and a fictional children's character into a trending talking point.
Peppa Pig's viral remark sparked the joke
The playful exchange began during Peppa Pig's appearance in Pitchfork's Over/Under game, where the animated character rated a selection of music artists.
While expressing admiration for acts including PinkPantheress and The Beatles, Peppa responded to Clairo by saying, "I don't know her," a line widely recognised as a reference to Mariah Carey's famous response when asked about Jennifer Lopez.
The remark, accompanied by a knowing glance at the camera, quickly gained traction online.
Charli XCX rushed to Clairo's defence
After seeing the clip, Charli XCX privately messaged Clairo, writing, "Let's f**k her up," alongside a screenshot of the viral post.
Clairo later shared the exchange on social media, prompting thousands of reactions from fans, many of whom responded with pig and bacon-themed jokes.
PinkPantheress, whom Peppa had praised in the original video, also joined the conversation, posting a message supporting Clairo.
As the exchange continued, Clairo responded to the growing attention with humour, replying to posts before eventually telling followers, "ok that's enoughhhhh lolllllllllll."
Some fans joked that the viral moment was the perfect opportunity for the singer to announce new music, though Clairo replied that she did not have anything ready to share.
Her most recent album, Charm, was released in 2024, with its accompanying tour concluding in 2025.
Charli XCX keeps her focus on new music
While the online joke continued to gather momentum, Charli XCX did not publicly add to the exchange.
Instead, the singer has been focusing on promoting her upcoming album, Music, Fashion, Film, which is scheduled for release on July 24.
Although fans speculated that one of the track titles could be a playful nod to the viral exchange, there has been no indication that the album references the light-hearted social media moment.
