Imtiaz Ali’s latest project
Meanwhile, Imtiaz Ali’s latest film, Main Vaapas Aaunga, has been receiving a positive response from audiences across the country. The film stars Diljit Dosanjh, Naseeruddin Shah, Sharvari and Vedang Raina in pivotal roles.
Set against the backdrop of personal history and the Partition, the period drama follows 95-year-old Ishar Singh Grewal, played by Naseeruddin Shah, who suffers a stroke while attempting to travel to Sargodha in present-day Pakistan. As memories of his life before the Partition return, his grandson Nirvair, played by Diljit Dosanjh, comes back from England to uncover long-buried family secrets. The mystery around Ishar’s emotional journey forms the heart of the story.
