A Strong Sixth-Week Run Across India and Overseas
Main Vaapas Aaunga continues to perform exceptionally at the box office despite facing competition from several major Bollywood and Hollywood releases. The film is currently screening in more than 450 shows across India while simultaneously maintaining its theatrical run in 10 international countries, a rare accomplishment for a Hindi film. Released across an impressive 804 screens in 59 countries, the film has become one of the widest overseas releases for a Hindi production this year. Beyond traditional Hindi-speaking markets, it has also received an outstanding response in cities such as Hyderabad, Bengaluru and Kolkata, highlighting its broad pan-India appeal and expanding audience base.
The film's consistent occupancy, positive reviews and growing word-of-mouth have translated into sustained footfalls and additional screenings, allowing it to maintain a strong theatrical presence weeks after its release. Industry observers have credited its emotional storytelling and audience-driven momentum for the film's continued success.
Emotional Storytelling Wins Hearts Across Generations

During his Hyderabad visit, Imtiaz expressed his gratitude to movie lovers whose recommendations encouraged more people to experience the film in theatres. Their continued support has helped the film maintain exceptional occupancy levels and a strong theatrical hold across domestic and international markets.
