Munjya, a horror comedy drama film, is one of the big hits of 2024. Munjya, directed by Aditya Sarpotdar, features Abhay Verma and Sharvari in lead roles.
The film was released on June 7, 2024, offering the perfect blend of horror, comedy, drama, and mythology to weave its story.
Go to TV launch
There is a huge excitement among fans who have not watched the film. Surprisingly, the film debuted on television before premiering on OTT platforms. The film is set to premiere on Star Gold channel on August 24, 2024. It provides an excellent opportunity for viewers to enjoy the film at home without spending a single penny.
Munjya OTT Story
The film revolves around Gotya, a young Brahmin who transforms into a vengeful spirit named Munjya after a failed attempt to poison Munni, the woman he loves. Munjya haunts a pipal tree in Konkan. After years, a hairdresser, Bittu, tormented by nightmares about the tree, becomes possessed by Munjya during her visit. Munjya intends to marry Bela and sacrifice her, but with a friend Speilberg and an exorcist, Bittu manages to defeat Munjya by burning the tree. However, the spirit’s remains suggest that it may not have disappeared completely.
Opt for OTT release
Disney+Hotstar has reportedly bought the digital rights of Munjya. The film could release on the platform anytime later this month or next month.
Munjya’s blockbuster
Munjya was a huge success at the box office and grossed over Rs 132 crore against a production budget of Rs 30 crore. The film became the fifth highest-grossing Hindi film of the year. The reception of the film has been overwhelmingly positive from critics and audiences alike.
In an interview with Bollywood Hungama, Aditya Sarpotdar, the director of the film, mentioned that most actors find auditions gruelling, but I see them as a gateway. “Getting through that gateway is crucial. I knew from the beginning that Munjya would be a significant contribution to Hindi cinema, especially in a genre that hasn’t been explored much,” Sarpotdar added.
