Imtiaz Ali's recent release Main Vaapas Aaunga has received acclaim, but the box office figures are not high. However, the filmmaker is unperturbed, citing an uptrend in ticket sales. He attributes the film's modest start to its non-star-driven nature, saying it couldn't have opened big. Ali is pleased that the younger generation is connecting with the film, particularly its love story set 78 years in the past. He believes this generation is craving love and commitment, and the film's portrayal of a bygone era resonates with them.
