Avinash Tiwary and Triptii Dimri's romantic drama film Laila Majnu is all set to re-release in theatres on August 9. The story revolves around Qais and Laila, two Kashmiri lovers who are unable to reconcile because of the hostility from their families. But destiny steps in and Laila marries another man as Qais travels to London. Laila Majnu stars Avinash Tiwary and Triptii Dimri in the lead roles and is directed by Sajid Ali. On Wednesday, filmmaker Imtiaz Ali celebrated this milestone by sharing a series of photos on his Instagram handle.
