Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein: Dia Mirza recalls being 'dropped from many projects' after movie's box office failure; 'Film’s popularity grew once...'

As a lifestyle expert with a deep appreciation for cinema, I must say that witnessing the revival of Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein is like stepping back into my teenage years. This film holds a special place in the hearts of millennials who grew up in the early 2000s, and its return to theaters after 23 years feels nothing short of magical.


23 years after first gracing the silver screen, Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein is coming back to theaters, offering me and fellow millennials a chance to relive our youthful love stories all over again. Starring R Madhavan and Dia Mirza, this 2001 film has become a timeless classic in Hindi cinema. Interestingly, Dia herself, who launched her acting career with this very movie, shared that she faced rejection from various projects following the underwhelming box office performance of a 1999 iconic film. She also highlighted how the love for RHTDM has grown among its audience over time.

In a recent chat with Times of India, Dia Mirza shared that she and her team felt extremely disheartened when Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein bombed at the box office. Later on, however, the film gained popularity amongst the public via online platforms like electronic media and social networks. Unfortunately, due to its initial failure, Dia was also dropped from several projects following its release.

Reflecting back, the actress from RHTDM noted that the movie’s fame expanded when it was broadcast on TV. Over time, it received an additional surge of popularity on social media platforms.

Dia discussed how Rehnaa Hai… has gained a “cult following,” as the audience remains enamored with the 2001 film. At age 42, the actress admitted that its acclaim revealed to her that it truly resonates with movie enthusiasts.

During that same interview, the actress from Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein opened up about her time collaborating with R Madhavan and Saif Ali Khan on set. At the time, Dia was a fresh face in the industry. She affectionately referred to Madhavan as her “teacher” during production, as he offered valuable guidance throughout the film’s creation. Dia also expressed that her fellow actor truly embodied gentlemanly behavior.

Actress in Kandahar who played a hijacker conveyed that Saif Ali Khan brought laughter on the sets of RHTDM. Dia Mirza mentioned she enjoyed being around him during that time. Saif’s wit helped her feel comfortable, as she further shared.

On August 29th, I took to Instagram to share some exciting news with my beloved followers: Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein is making its way back to the big screen! I must admit, I’m feeling a bit jittery about it.

He expressed that he wasn’t sure what was causing him to feel anxious today. Furthermore, the RHTDM actor shared his hope that everyone would enjoy the movie just as much when they watch it at home, despite not having seen it in theaters first.

Under the direction of Gautham Vasudev Menon, the film Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein is scheduled for re-release on August 30, 2024. Originally released as a romantic drama in 2001, this movie was actually a remake of Menon’s Tamil film Minnale, which also starred R Madhavan. In the film, Madhavan portrayed Shastri (also known as Maddy), while Dia Mirza played Reena Malhotra. Saif Ali Khan’s character was named Rajeev Samra, or simply Sam. Apart from these main stars, Anupam Kher, Vrajesh Hirjee, and Navin Nischol took on significant roles in the movie.
