Laying stress on the overall film’s treatment, a netizen opined, “Main Vaapas Aaunga is not just a normal film.. it is CELLULOID ON SCREEN ! A SOULFUL ODE to LOVE, BELONGING & HOME and trust me rarely do we get films like this where, after watching them, you fall short of words because it takes time to absorb everything you just witnessed From the very first shot, when #NaseeruddinShah arrives on screen and the TITLE appears, it ENGAGES you completely !! Drama that unfolds, the love story, the entire setup, and the music syncing beautifully with every scene… and then the 1st HALF ends on an ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT NOTE The 2nd HALF shows how dark the Partition era truly was, how loved ones were SHATTERED, and how SHAMELESSLY the British did all this without a 2nd thought!!” 

Looking at the early response and first-day reactions, it is believed that strong word-of-mouth may help the film to perform well at the box office. Stay tuned to know Main Vaapas Aaunga’s first day box office turnout.
