Avinash Tiwary and Triptii Dimri’s Laila Majnu: A Rare Re-Release Thriving for 25 Weeks
Posted on 25 Jan, 2025

Originally released in 2018, Laila Majnu, directed by Sajid Ali, features Avinash Tiwary as Qais Bhatt and Triptii Dimri as Laila. A contemporary retelling of the legendary Arabic love story Layla and Majnun, the film is set against the picturesque backdrop of Kashmir. It received critical acclaim upon release, with audiences praising its poignant storytelling and the compelling performances of its lead actors.
Fast forward to August 2024, the film was re-released in Indian theatres due to overwhelming public demand. Defying industry norms, Laila Majnu has now entered its 25th week in cinemas. A single-screen theatre in Delhi continues to screen the film daily, drawing consistent crowds and reaffirming its enduring charm.
In an era where theatrical runs are often short-lived due to quick OTT releases, Laila Majnu has defied the odds. Its longevity in theatres highlights the timelessness of its narrative and the emotional resonance it has achieved with viewers, setting it apart as a rare gem in modern cinema.
The film's sustained success underscores its status as a modern classic in Indian cinema, with audiences and critics alike acknowledging its emotional depth and powerful storytelling.
Produced by Balaji Motion Pictures, Ektaa R. Kapoor, Shobha Kapoor, and Preety Ali, and presented by Imtiaz Ali, Laila Majnu continues to leave an indelible mark on Indian audiences.
