Munjya OTT release date

Munjya is the Marathi name for Upanayana (sacred thread), or the ‘thread ceremony’ performed only for Hindu Brahmin boys, typically around adolescence. As legend has it, after death, the spirits of these boys haunt peepal trees. The Bollywood movie is based on the belief that these spirits dwell in peepal trees or near wells. This makes people afraid of going near wells or peepal trees at night.

Scheduled to stream on Disney+ Hotstar around August-September 2024, Munjhya’s OTT release will offer Bollywood fans to be scared, and tickled to death, at the same time.
