The reason is that Aamir is supporting the producers stand in the on-going dispute between multiplex owners and producers and feels that the re-release of Raakh will send the wrong message to everyone. Says Aamir, “Raakh is my second film and was released in 1990.

Most people remember Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak as Aamir Khan's first big break. That film made him into an overnight star and Aamir was the nation's newest chocolate boy. Aamir however followed it up an extremely dark and disturbing film called Raakh. Released way back in 1989, Raakh unfortunately went unnoticed.
Now 20 years later when Aamir is arguably one of Indian's biggest superstars, Raakh is being re-released. The film is being released as a part of a joint venture between two production houses – Audacity International
