The acclaimed Manipuri film Boong, directed and written by Lakshmipriya Devi, is all set to release in select Indian theatres on September 19, 2025. This marks a significant moment for Manipuri cinema as it finds space on mainstream platforms, giving regional cinema a wider audience reach across the country.

Boong first premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) 2024, where it received international recognition and praise for its storytelling. Its upcoming release in India will be hosted across PVR INOX cinemas in select cities, ensuring the film’s unique voice is accessible to Indian cinephiles.

Produced by Excel Entertainment, Chalkboard Entertainment, and Suitable Pictures, the film’s theatrical debut is being seen as a milestone moment for Manipuri-language films in India’s cinematic landscape.
