The Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan-starring Karan Arjun returned to theatres globally on November 22. Directed by Rakesh Roshan, the movie is remembered for its gripping storyline and memorable performances. Roshan shared his thoughts ahead of the re-release, calling it an "experiment" to see if the film's reincarnation theme still resonates with audiences. "I'm curious to see whether today's generation believes in such a story or not. If they like the film, it will mean that the generation hasn't changed," Roshan said.

Tumbbad

Tumbbad

The visually stunning horror-thriller Tumbbad shattered its previous box-office records during its re-release on September 13. Directed by Rahi Anil Barve and co-produced by Sohum Shah, the movie even surpassed classics like Sholay and Mughal-e-Azam in opening-day collections. Tumbbad originally released in 2018, and its success led producer Sohum Shah to announce Tumbbad 2. Fans were thrilled to revisit the eerie tale of greed and curses, making it one of the most talked-about re-releases of the year.

Jab We Met

The two-part film, which stars Manoj Bajpayee, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, and Richa Chadha, recounts the story of a coal mafia spanning three generations. Recalling the film's journey, Siddiqui had earlier told ANI, "I never thought Gangs of Wasseypur would become a cult film. But watching it at Cannes, I felt the magic of Anurag's creation."
