Some love stories are grand others are unforgettable and then there’s this film that we are talking about which didn’t just tell a tale of love it burned it into the memory of an entire generation. The film that released in an era which was filled with feel-good rom-coms this film went the other way — raw intense and painful.  It introduced Bollywood to a kind of heartbreak where love isn’t rewarded but sacrificed. The hero loves with reckless abandon fights against fate and in the end? He’s left with nothing but a broken soul. Raanjhanaa wasn’t just a film; it was emotional devastation on screen. Raanjhanaa - Plot Starring Dhanush in his Bollywood debut alongside Sonam Kapoor and Abhay Deol the film revolved around Kundan and Zoya childhood sweethearts torn apart by caste time and choices. While Zoya finds love in someone else during college Kundan never moves on. What follows is a chain of irreversible events: a tragic twist an unexpected death and a climax that still leaves viewers haunted. Directed by Anand L. Rai the film’s visuals were as poetic as its pain set against the chaotic yet soulful backdrop of Banaras. The dialogues? People still quote them like scripture. The music? Timeless. A.R. Rahman’s soundtrack pierced deeper than any love letter could. Raanjhanaa’s earned twice its budget Despite its heavy heart Raanjhanaa was a box office success — made on a modest Rs 50 crore budget it raked in over Rs 105 crore proving that audiences weren’t just ready for tragic love stories — they craved them. With an IMDb rating of 7.6 Raanjhanaa still holds its charm over a decade later. Raanjhanaa still ruling on OTT Today even after years Raanjhanaa finds new fans on OTT platforms like ZEE5 and Amazon Prime Video. It’s the kind of film that doesn’t age — because heartbreak never goes out of style.  So if youre looking to revisit a 2 hours and 20 minutes love story that hits like a punch to the gut Raanjhanaa is waiting — and it still hurts just as beautifully.
