True Entertainment Pvt. Ltd. will re-release the 2002 theatrical success Yeh Dil Aashiqanaa across cinemas on 13 February 2026, bringing the film back to the big screen 24 years after its original release in 2002.

Directed by Kuku Kohli, Yeh Dil Hai Aashiqanaa was among the notable box-office performers of its year and remains remembered for its music, romance and scale. Importantly, the film has never been released on any OTT platform, making this theatrical re-release the first opportunity in years for audiences to watch it in cinemas.

Kuku Kohli is a well-known name in Hindi commercial cinema and is best recognised for introducing Ajay Devgn in Phool Aur Kaante (1991), a film that went on to become iconic, particularly for its opening bike-split sequence, which remains one of the most talked-about debut entries in Bollywood. Over the years, Kohli has directed films such as Suhaag, Haqeeqat, Zulmi and Yeh Dil Aashiqanaa, and also launched actors Karan Nath and Jividha Sharma with the crowd pleaser blockbuster. The film’s music that’s on Tips Music sees an unusual surge when it comes to songs of this film that are always ranking high on chartbusters list.

The re-release brings back the much-loved romantic movie starring Karan Nath and Jividha Sharma is nostalgia wrapped in a film. Despite not being available on any digital platform, the film has continued to excite audiences. The film has been re-edited to suit the sensibilities of today’s audiences and has been certified by the CBFC again.

Shailendra Mandowara of True Entertainment has been active in film distribution and production for over 24 years and is run by him, who had released and distributed cult classic Tujhe Meri Kasam.

Shailendra Mandowara of True Entertainment Pvt. Ltd.) told us, “At True Entertainment, we strongly believe that certain films belong only in theatres, and Yeh Dil Aashiqanaa is one of them. It has never been released on Satellite and OTT, and that was a conscious decision to bring it back to theatres for today audience. After the overwhelming response to the re-release of Tujhe Meri Kasam, bringing this film back felt like a natural step. This is about celebrating cinema that audiences still want to experience on the big screen.”

Kuku Kohli (Director) tells us, “Yeh Dil Aashiqanaa was made for the big screen — the scale, the music, the emotions, everything was designed to be experienced collectively in a theatre. I’m genuinely happy that a new generation will get the chance to discover the film the way audiences did in 2002. Romantic films have a huge audience base today and the film will cater to young viewers. Cinema has a long memory, and when a film connects honestly, it always finds its way back to the audience.”
