Imtiaz Ali's Main Vaapas Aaunga, fronted by film veteran Naseeruddin Shah, surprisingly minted a few lakhs more on its first Monday than on its opening day. The film's gross collections in India stand at Rs 8.10 crore, with net collections of Rs 6.75 crore.

Breaking down the numbers

On Monday, the film earned Rs 1.25 crore across 2,139 shows.

The film earned Rs 1.15 crore on Friday, Rs 1.85 crore on Saturday, and Rs 2.50 crore on Sunday, according to Sacnilk.

Praise for the film

Filmmakers Zoya Akhtar, Anurag Kashyap and Anubhav Sinha showered praise on the film.

Zoya Akhtar wrote on her Instagram Stories, "Congratulations to beautiful people for the beautiful film Main Vaapas Aaunga."

Congratulating ex-wife Aarti Bajaj for editing, Anurag Kashyap kept his message short and simple: "Congratulations champion."

Filmmaker Anubhav Sinha wrote, "Imtiaz, my friend, so so so happy to see Main Vaapas Aaunga. In times when film directors, for various reasons, are getting ruthlessly stripped of the most vital virtue of their art form, every frame of your film is soaked in that very virtue. BELIEF!!!"

Main Vaapas Aaunga marks the second collaboration between Imtiaz Ali and Diljit Dosanjh after their 2024 Netflix film Amar Singh Chamkila. It also reunites the director with composer A. R. Rahman and lyricist Irshad Kamil, the trio behind acclaimed soundtracks for films such as Rockstar, Tamasha, Highway and Amar Singh Chamkila.

Imtiaz Ali's take on partition and the classic love story in this film opens a floodgate of emotions, turbulence and conflict that have tormented many generations.

-
https://ift.tt/gjQfS59 Sarfaraz Khan 's long absence from the Indian Test team has raised quite a few eyebrows. Several former players feel that the Mumbai batter, who has not played a Test since November 2024, deserves a chance in the squad. Former India player Aakash Chopra believes Sarfaraz has fallen victim to a perception battle. The 28-year-old has so far played six Tests, scoring 371 runs at an average of 37.10. He has three fifties and one century to his name. "I think there is a clarity issue in the case of Sarfaraz. I think it is a case of perception and understanding. I am trying to think-they might have a perception that he may not do as well in swinging conditions or play fast bowling well. Maybe he is not our guy in SENA countries. So he did not get the chance. But even to make that perception, I have to allow him to fail. He is not even being allowed to fail. And now there is no place in the team as well," Chopra said on Shubhankar Mishra's YouTube ch...
