New Delhi: Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions has blocked dates for releases of its three films ‘Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani’, ‘Gippi’ and ‘Ungli’.

The first release will be the children's film ‘Gippi’. Directed by debutant Sonam Nair, it will come out on April 5 and marks the production house’s first association with a female director.

Riya Vij, 13, is likely to play the lead role in ‘Gippi’.

It will be followed by the much-awaited Ranbir Kapoor-Deepika Padukone starrer ‘Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani’, scheduled for a May 31 release.

Directed by Ayan Mukerji of ‘Wake Up Sid’ fame, the movie is creating a buzz as it brings real life ex-lovers Kapoor and Padukone together on the silver screen after the 2008 movie ‘Bachna Ae Haseeno’. The movie also stars Kalki Koechlin.

Dharma’s third release will be Rensil D’Silva directed ‘Ungli’. The film, which will be released on September 6, stars Emraan Hashmi and Randeep Hooda.
