1. laila Majnu cast - avinash tiwary and Triptii Dimri
The third movie starring avinash tiwary and Triptii Dimri was laila Majnu. After that, avinash gave heartfelt performances in the films Bulbbul, Khakee: The bihar Chapter, and Bambai Meri Jaan, while Triptii left a lasting impression on the audience in Bulbbul and Qala, her following two releases. Following the publication of Animal last year, the actress became a "national crush" and is currently receiving a ton of film proposals.
2. Not Directed by Imtiaz Ali
A common misperception is that imtiaz ali is the director of laila Majnu. Imtiaz and his younger brother Sajid Ali, who directed the movie, authored the script. Although Sajid's debut film banana was shot ten years ago, it was retitled Woh Bhi Din The and shown on ZEE5 early this year. Thus, his professional directing debut was made with the 2018 film laila Majnu.
3. Bombed at Box Office
In 2018, laila Majnu was released, and the movie was a box-office disaster. According to the entertainment monitoring service Sacnilk, the film barely made Rs 2.70 crore net and Rs 3.20 crore gross in India, albeit with a meager budget of Rs 10 crore. avinash tiwary and Triptii Dimri were not well-known at the time, therefore they were unable to draw crowds to the theaters.
4. Cult Status and Re-Release
Following its ZEE5 wallet PLATFORM' target='_blank' title='digital-Latest Updates, Photos, Videos are a click away, CLICK NOW'>digital release, laila Majnu progressively developed a cult following. The music that Joi Barua and Niladri Kumar wrote is a significant contributing factor to its cult status. Atif Aslam, Arijit Singh, Mohit Chauhan, and shreya ghoshal crooned several beautiful pieces, including Aahista, O Meri Laila, Tum, Hafiz Hafiz, and Sarphiri.
Releasing laila Majnu in theaters was done last week on august 9. The movie took in Rs 25 lakh on Friday, Rs 75 lakh on Saturday, a 200% increase, and Rs 1 crore on Sunday, bringing the total for the first weekend's earnings to Rs 2.15 crore. The love drama is expected to make history by being the first movie (maybe) to make more money on a second showing than on its first.
