Imtiaz Ali’s ‘Laila Majnu’ Re-Release Surpasses Original Box Office Collection in India

“Laila Majnu” re-release is set to surpass its original box office collection, earning INR25 million in just three days since its re-release on August 9. The romantic drama, starring Triptii Dimri and Avinash Tiwary, is gaining newfound popularity and is expected to reach INR50 million gross by the end of its re-release run. This exceptional run marks the first time a Bollywood re-release has touched the single-day mark of INR10 million gross at the box office.

The movie’s initial run in 2018 was lackluster, but it has since become a cult classic. Written by Imtiaz Ali, “Laila Majnu” is a modern take on a classic folktale, and its re-release is proving to be a success. However, its theatrical run will be short-lived due to the scheduled release of multiple movies on India’s Independence Day, including “Stree 2”, “Khel Khel Mein”, and “Vedaa”.

Despite this, the “Laila Majnu” re-release is making waves, and its success is a testament to the film’s enduring appeal. The movie’s lead actress, Triptii Dimri, is also making headlines, with reports suggesting she may play the lead role in a biopic on the late Bollywood actress Parveen Babi. As the “Laila Majnu” re-release continues to impress, fans are eagerly awaiting its final box office tally. Will it surpass its original collection? Only time will tell, but one thing is certain – this re-release is a must-watch for fans of the classic tale.
