The original 16mm negative was painstakingly restored, removing colour fading, scratches, and mould damage. The result is a vibrant 4K version that retains the film's original spirit.

In Which Annie Gives It Those Ones premiered at the Berlin International Film Festival, receiving a standing ovation. Roy and Krishen's collaboration is a significant part of Indian cinema history, showcasing a unique perspective on student life and rebellion. The film's release is a nostalgic moment for Shah Rukh Khan, who made one of his earliest cinematic appearances in the film.
