Black Screen/No screen activity

My MacBook turns on and the keyboard is lit, but this screen is black. The Apple logo on the back of the screen is not lit and I’ve tried to boot from recovery mode but the screen is still black. It was literally working fine last night.

I had the same issue recently with my MacBook Air. Took it to the service centre, where I got to know about the hefty amount I need to pay because my warranty had expired in June. Anyway, he told me that he has seen many cases like this and asked me to register my complaint with Apple. I'm hoping they start a repair program for MacBook Air retina display, as there is an ongoing MacBook Pro display repair program with people facing the same issue
