Main Vaapas Aaunga, starring Naseeruddin Shah, Diljit Dosanjh, Vedang Raina, and Sharvari, collected Rs. 2.50 crore on its Day 3 (Sunday), taking the first weekend's cume to Rs. 5.50 crore nett at the Indian box office. That's a disappointing weekend debut for a film that has mainly garnered positive reviews among the critics and the audience. 

Considering the artistic lens, it's a winner for Imtiaz Ali, but not from the box office perspective. What's embarrassing is that Main Vaapas Aaunga remained nearly 35 per cent lower than its rival release, Haunted 3D: Echoes Of The Past, which met with poor word-of-mouth. That's how unpredictable the business is in today's markets. 

Based on current trends, the romantic drama is looking to wind up its full run under the Rs. 10 crore nett mark in India, unless it doesn't see a miraculous jump in the coming days. That will be a disastrous result for the film. Let's see how it performs in the coming days and whether it can show some better legs ahead.

Day-wise box office collections of Main Vaapas Aaunga are as follows: 

Day Box Office
   
1 Rs. 1.15 crore 
2 Rs. 1.85 crore
3 Rs. 2.50 crore
   
Total Rs. 5.50 crore
