Bollywood's superhit and memorable love story 'Raanjhanaa' is all set to return to the big screen once again. This film not only won the hearts of the audience at the time of its release but also performed brilliantly at the box office.
Raanjhanaa Re-Release 2025: Bollywood's memorable romantic tragic love story 'Raanjhanaa' is once again ready for release in theaters. Released in 2013, this film not only left a new mark on Indian cinema but also made a special place in the hearts of the audience. This film starring Sonam Kapoor and Dhanush is still etched in the hearts of fans due to its emotional content and शानदार music.
Now this film is being re-released in theaters once again on August 1, 2025. The special thing is that this time, with the help of AI (Artificial Intelligence), the climax of the film has been slightly changed.
Reason for the re-release of Raanjhanaa
The film Raanjhanaa grossed ₹93.97 crore worldwide in its time. In India, it earned ₹60.22 crore, while its budget was only ₹30 crore. This is the reason why this film not only proved to be a hit but also established its identity as a cult love story. Now, after almost 12 years, when the era of the return of old classic films has started in theaters, it has been decided to bring 'Raanjhanaa' back to the big screen.
The film's producer, Eros International, believes that the emotional depth and story of this film will be liked by today's audience as much as it was in 2013.
Climax changed through AI
The biggest change with the re-release is that the climax of the film has been slightly changed with the help of AI technology. Earlier, where the film ended with the tragic death of Kundan (Dhanush), this time it has been turned towards a slightly happy ending. However, the film's director Aanand L Rai has expressed displeasure over this change.
He said that, I was not consulted for this change. There was no need to change a classic film like Raanjhanaa in this way. But the production company Eros International says that this has been done keeping in mind the new generation of audience so that the film's message gives an even more positive feel.
Story of the film and why it is special
The story of 'Raanjhanaa' begins in the streets of Banaras. Kundan Shankar (Dhanush) has a one-sided love for Zoya Haider (Sonam Kapoor) since childhood. But Zoya is in love with Jasjeet Singh (Abhay Deol). The story revolves around love, religion, politics and sacrifice. Kundan's innocent love and its end touch the hearts of the audience. The ending changed through AI will give the film a slightly positive turn this time.
A.R. Rahman's शानदार Music
The music of this film is as iconic as its story. A.R. Rahman's songs have made it immortal.
- 'Tum Tak',
- 'Banarasiya',
- 'Piya Milenge'
Songs like these still reside in the hearts of the listeners. With the re-release, this music will once again resonate in the theater. In today's era, where similar stories are seen repeatedly in theaters, the return of an emotional and realistic love story like 'Raanjhanaa' will be a special experience for new audiences along with the nostalgia factor. This time the audience will be able to see it in a changed climax with new technology.
