Imtiaz Ali’s romantic period drama “Main Vaapas Aaunga,” starring Diljit Dosanjh, Sharvari, Vedang Raina and Naseeruddin Shah, releases in June and receives generally positive critical and audience reactions. However, multiple reports describe a slow and uneven box office performance amid stiff competition from other releases. Box office figures reported by outlets vary by day but show modest totals through the first week: net collections in India are described around the mid to high single digits in the first several days, with day-to-day changes including a reported drop on Monday and later steadier weekday earnings. One report says the film crosses ₹12 crore in its first week, while another cites totals rising to around ₹18 crore in India and higher worldwide figures by later days.
Separately, a viral video shows a man crying after meeting Imtiaz Ali and Vedang Raina at a screening. Social media users claimed Vedang’s PR team had arranged the reaction. The man in the video, Dushyant Arora, posted on X clarifying that he was not hired, and that Vedang appeared moved and in tears. He also says his grandmother had Alzheimer’s.
