Imtiaz Ali’s Main Vaapas Aaunga is showing real staying power. The film collected approximately Rs. 2.50 crore nett on its second Monday — over 100% growth week-on-week and even 25% higher than its second Friday. That’s a rare trend for any Bollywood release past its opening week.

Eleven Days In, the Numbers Tell a Story
The film’s running total now stands at Rs. 27 crore nett in eleven days, with Rs. 14.50 crore coming from just four days of week two. The full second week is projected to land around Rs. 22 crore, pushing the total to Rs. 34-35 crore.
But the real test lies ahead. To cross Rs. 60 crore nett, the film needs to keep its weekly drops under 50%, ideally closer to 40%, over the next three weeks. That won’t be easy with Welcome to the Jungle, Alpha, and Dhamaal 4 all releasing in the same window.
