Bollywood has not had much luck in 2024. Well-known producers spent a lot of money on big-budget films starring big names, but none of them have really taken off at the box office. But this year's biggest highlight has got to be the re-release of a few classic movies, which will always be cherished for their soundtracks, performances, and plots.
In february of this year, we witnessed yash Raj Films rereleasing popular films like Veer Zaara and Mohabbatein on theaters. They also lowered the cost of admission to the performances to just Rs. 112. As a result of the trend, Rockstar was re-released and met with great success. laila Majnu was the following book on the list, released in 2018. This friday marks its re-release. The contemporary retelling of a well-known folktale did not start out well. However, this movie, like many others, also raised the question, "Was it deserving enough to become a box office bomb?" in everyone's thoughts. And the response is undoubtedly no.
The fact that laila Majnu was re-released shows that the general audience may influence a movie's outcome. All of the performances in india are fully booked, and some of them are even completely sold out. Interestingly, the business has not been impacted by the limited availability of single screens. Considering that the re-release occurred on a non-holiday, the response is unexpected. social media channels have previously being used by audiences to express their opinions. A handful of them shared specific scenes from the movie and complimented avinash tiwary and Triptii Dimri, the leading duo, on their performances.
The project has also had a significant influence on the demand for the re-release of movies like Go goa Gone. This is to be anticipated given the dreadful material that bollywood is now producing. Regarding avinash and Triptii, their individual careers were not negatively impacted by laila Majnu's collapse. The latter is being pursued by renowned producers because of her exceptional acting on screen, while the former just won over the public with his portrayal in Madgaon Express.
Bollywood is now going through a difficult time, as was previously reported. For the movies that have been released in the previous several months, there is virtually any crowd waiting in line to get a ticket. Releasing older movies is the only option to keep the people interested in hindi cinema at this critical juncture.
