Listen to article
The 2017 romantic drama Shaadi Mein Zaroor Aana, starring Rajkummar Rao and Kriti Kharbanda, will have its second theatrical release on March 7, 2025.
The film, directed by Ratnaa Sinha and written by Kamal Pandey, originally earned INR 11 crores at the box office but has since gained a cult following for its emotional storyline and memorable performances.
Kriti Kharbanda, who plays Aarti in the film, took to Instagram to announce the exciting news, sharing a message with her followers. "Love at first sight. Second time: Love all over again! Shaadi Mein Zaroor Aana is coming back to the big screen this Friday, March 7th, all because of your love," she wrote.
"You've laughed, cried, and rooted for Aarti & Sattu in the past, but now it's time to feel it all over again, in a theatre, with popcorn in one hand and nostalgia in the other."
The film follows the journey of Satyendra (Rajkummar Rao) and Aarti (Kriti Kharbanda), whose arranged marriage leads to a series of emotional twists and personal growth. It explores themes of love, betrayal, societal expectations, and personal ambition, all set against the backdrop of a traditional Indian marriage.
The movie's plot, which includes a significant storyline and notable musical numbers like 'Thukra Ke Mera Pyaar,' has garnered a dedicated audience over time.
The re-release trend continues to gather momentum in Bollywood, with other films such as Lootera, Raanjhanaa, Bareilly Ki Barfi, and Sanam Teri Kasam also making a return to the big screen. The film's re-release is part of an ongoing effort to revive cult classics that didn't perform well initially but have since found a devoted fanbase.
Producer Deepak Mukut, who also re-released Sanam Teri Kasam, is behind the decision to bring Shaadi Mein Zaroor Aana back to cinemas. The re-release comes at a strategic time, as there are no major theatrical releases scheduled for this week, ensuring the film a clear run at the box office.

We must dig deep to figure out someone's intentions'
In an interview with Ambreen Fatima, fashion designer Hassan Sheheryar Yasin (HSY) shared his views on the vitriol that actors like Fawad Khan and Hania Aamir received for not condemning India's war crimes as strongly as their fans hoped they would. "The eyes are the windows to a man's soul. One must dig deep to figure out what someone's actual mindset and intentions are," HSY said. "I know Fawad very well, and I know how much of a die-hard Pakistani he truly is. He's my friend." The designer also added Mahira Khan to his observation. "Mahira, another friend of mine, is devoted to Pakistan. I know how much she works to promote the Pakistani sentiment and does what she can for those who cannot raise their own voices." Bringing up yet another showbiz friend, he continued, "Hania is a relatively recent entry in the industry. I've seen her since the beginning of her career. I've also worked with her. We're friends and we share mutuals. Hania is very pro-Pakistan." HSY reckoned that the criticism was fuelled by a collective anger or passion that netizens have for showbiz. "Those watching must believe that they are a part of a celebrity's life, and rightfully so because they are involved in everything, be it the movies or the promotions," he acknowledged. HSY reasoned that, perhaps, the mentioned stars weren't able to express themselves as strongly as their fans were hoping they would. "I can't say anything about that because your opinions are valid," he said. "But I can vouch for my friends and safely say that they didn't intend to cause any hurt." The designer added that everyone can speculate as much as they want, but they won't have the answers to everything. In the same way, he can speak about Fawad at a friend's capacity, nothing less or more. "I am aware of the public's disapproval of his statement," HSY said. "Because he is my friend, I'll share my perception of him. But neither has anyone paid me to do so nor is this benefitting me in any way. HSY is going to remain HSY. But I can uplift someone else's truth because that's the right thing to do." He, however, reiterated that public criticisms weren't misplaced. "Yes, the public's belief that celebrities should confidently speak out is valid. And we are the ones who should be taking that stand because every drop counts and makes one Pakistan, which is not a small thing. So wherever I am qualified to talk about Pakistan, I try to do so to the best of my abilities," he vowed. What the stars said Following India's aerial attack on Pakistani civilians last month, multiple local celebrities took to social media to condemn the aggression, stand in solidarity with the victims, and call out Indian celebrities who celebrated the loss of lives in Pakistan. This included Mahira, who decried India's "war and hate rhetoric" and asserted that the Indian entertainment industry was claiming victory in fear-induced silence. "To me, that silence is your greatest defeat. You attack cities in the middle of the night and call it a victory? Shame on you," she said. Fawad, meanwhile, offered his deepest condolences to those injured and killed in "this shameful attack". Adding a prayer for the deceased and the bereaved, he said, "A respectful request to all: stop stoking the flames with rabble-rousing words. It's not worth the lives of innocent people. May better sense prevail, InshaAllah. Pakistan Zindabad!" Joining the chorus, Hania rued India's aggression with a heavy heart. "A child is gone. Families are shattered. And for what? This is not how you protect anyone. This is cruelty - plain and simple. You don't get to bomb innocent people and call it a strategy. This isn't strength. This is shameful. This is cowardly. And we see you." Netizens criticised some of the artists for not outright naming India as the aggressor and upholding peaceful sentiments while Indian artists stood by their war-mongering narrative.
