After a long wait, fans finally got to see one of the hotly anticipated movies of 2018, Laila Majnu, in cinemas today. The film, which has been helmed by Sajid Ali, brings together two genius creative minds of the industry, Ekta Kapoor and Imtiaz Ali, and hence a lot of expectations were riding on it.

“How will they not be noticed when the Queen of TV & Bollywood herself has launched them? Proud of you queen @ektaravikapoor #LailaMajnu,” wrote a fan on Twitter.

Another Twitterati praised Avinash Tiwari for his impeccable acting chops. “@avinashtiw85 sir I love you so much. Your film #LailaMajnu is nice. I’m from #Bihar and you are too. I know your struggle for your career and wins!!! I got a lesson from you. Thanks, sir.”

Not just the audience, Laila Majnu garnered praises from many filmmakers like Anurag Kashyap, Vikramaditya Motwani and Abhishek Chaubey, to name a few.
