Possibly the cable connecting the screen to the motherboard has become dislodged or has torn.
Or maybe it’s a motherboard failure. Do you get any signs that it appears to work correctly apart from the screen? E.g., do you hear a normal beep on boot (if you usually do)? Does it spend the correct amount of time blinking the hard disk light while apparently loading? Can you then login blind? Do you hear the login music? If you can answer yes to any of those then the main laptop is okay, just the screen connection is broken. If it apparently does nothing at all, the motherboard is probably dead.
In either case, I suggest using the warranty or taking it to a repair shop or to a nerd.
