Two films, featuring popular on-screen pairings, are returning to the big screen on May 24. Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahaani (2023) starring Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt will be re-released in the theatres. The Karan Johar directorial is a romantic comedy which released last year in July. Singh and Bhatt reunited after their sparkling chemistry in films like Gully Boy. The film also boasts a stellar supporting cast with veteran actors Dharmendra, Jaya Bachchan, and Shabana Azmi.
Ranveer Singh – Alia Bhatt’s Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani & Ranbir Kapoor – Deepika Padukone starrer Tamasha to re-release in theatres on May 24
Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani marked the return of Karan Johar as a director after seven years. The film also starred Tota Roy Chowdhury, Churni Ganguly, Aamir Bashir, Kshitee Jog and Anjali Anand.
Set against the vibrant backdrop of Delhi, the film features Rocky Randhawa (Ranveer Singh), a flamboyant Punjabi boy, and Rani Chatterjee (Alia Bhatt), an intellectual Bengali journalist, who find themselves drawn to each other despite their contrasting personalities and backgrounds. As their love deepens, Rocky and Rani face disapproval from their families, who struggle to reconcile their differences. Rocky’s boisterous Punjabi family clashes with Rani’s refined Bengali household, leading to comical misunderstandings and cultural clashes.
Another film set for the theatrical re-release is Tamasha, featuring Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone. This Imtiaz Ali-directed film is known for its picturesque locations, soulful music, and love story that explores the complexities of relationships. Kapoor and Padukone’s undeniable chemistry is a major highlight of the film.
Released in 2015, the story follows Ved (Ranbir Kapoor), a carefree traveller, and Tara (Deepika Padukone), a spirited girl, who meet on a vacation in Corsica. Their contrasting personalities lead to a whirlwind romance, but upon returning to their real lives, they face challenges that threaten their connection. Tamasha explores themes of self-discovery, following your dreams, and the power of love.
Marathi film Ved, starring Riteish Deshmukh and Genelia D’souza, will also hit the theaters tomorrow. Satya (Riteish Deshmukh) harbors a deep-seated heartbreak. His childhood sweetheart, Nisha (Jiya Shankar), left him unexpectedly, leaving a void filled only by alcohol. Despite his father’s urging, he marries his neighbor Shravani (Genelia D’Souza), who has loved him silently for years. However, Satya remains emotionally unavailable, clinging to memories of Nisha. Shravani, kind and supportive, becomes the financial pillar of the household while Satya drowns his sorrows. One day, Nisha’s orphaned daughter arrives, seeking a home. Satya agrees, but only on the condition that he can adopt her. Will this bring him closure or reignite a forbidden love? Can Shravani’s unwavering love win him over, or will the past continue to cast a shadow on their present? Helmed by Riteish, the film released in 2022 in theatres.
The re-release of these films is a strategic move by the studios to capitalize on the current trend of audiences returning to theaters post-pandemic and the lack of big releases in May 2024. Additionally, with both films featuring popular star pairings, the re-release is expected to draw in not just fans who may have missed them initially, but also a new generation of viewers eager to experience these on the big screen.
