JioHotstar has officially unveiled its latest original series, Hai Junoon – Dream, Dare, Dominate, a high-octane, coming-of-age musical drama that promises to resonate deeply with the youth and music lovers alike. Set to premiere on 16 May, 2025, the show stars Bollywood actors Neil Nitin Mukesh and Jacqueline Fernandez in leading roles.

The platform’s Instagram announcement, captioned “Zidd aur junoon ki jung mein only the greatest will win!”, hints at the show’s central themes—determination, passion, and the unyielding pursuit of greatness. The show plunges into the heart of college rivalries, identity struggles, and self-discovery. At its core are two fiercely talented music groups—The Misfits and The SuperSonics. Jacqueline Fernandez steps into the bold and dynamic role of Pearl, the fiery leader of The Misfits, while Neil Nitin Mukesh portrays Gagan Ahuja, the magnetic mentor of The SuperSonics.

Beyond the battle of bands, the series explores the deeply personal journeys of its characters as they navigate ambition, rebellion, relationships, and identity. With electrifying performances, a pulsating soundtrack, and raw emotion, Hai Junoon is poised to become a powerful youth-centric drama.​​

Alongside Jacqueline Fernandez and Neil Nitin Mukesh, Hai Junoon boasts an impressive ensemble cast featuring Sumedh Mudgalkar, Siddharth Nigam, and veteran actor Boman Irani. The cast also includes Shazahn Padamsee, Elnaaz Norouzi, and several other talented performers tagged in the official announcement post.

Directed by Abhishek Sharma and produced by Jio Creative Labs, Hai Junoon promises a visually stunning, emotionally gripping, and musically charged experience. The show’s soundtrack is expected to be as much a character as the people in it, blending modern beats with raw emotion.
