            The action-comedy Laila, starring Vishwak Sen, is set to make its digital debut after a disappointing theatrical run. Released in February 2025, the film failed to impress audiences and critics, receiving negative feedback for its content and execution. Despite heavy promotions highlighting Vishwak Sen's unique role in a female disguise, Laila struggled at the box office. The latest reports confirm that the film will begin streaming on Aha from March 7, 2025, marking its transition to the OTT space within three weeks of its theatrical release.
Aha has secured the digital rights for Laila, and the film will be available on the platform starting March 7, 2025. Additionally, Amazon Prime Video has also acquired the streaming rights, but an official release date for the platform is yet to be announced.
The trailer for Laila generated significant buzz due to Vishwak Sen's unusual portrayal of a female character, which was widely promoted as a unique aspect of the film. Directed by Ram Narayan, the movie follows a chaotic comedic storyline, featuring exaggerated humor and action sequences. However, despite the initial curiosity surrounding the trailer, Laila was criticized for its crude humor and dialogues.
The film stars Vishwak Sen in the lead role, with Akanksha Sharma playing the female lead. Directed by Ram Narayan, the project was bankrolled by Sahu Garapati under Shine Screens. Music for the film was composed by Leon James.
As per box office reports, Laila failed to make an impact, grossing less than ₹2 crore in its theatrical run. Audience and critic reviews were largely negative, with the film being criticised for its content and presentation and cringe comedy. Following the backlash, Vishwak Sen issued a public apology to his fans.
