Imtiaz Ali has always been known for extracting emotionally layered performances from his actors. From seasoned veterans to newcomers, the director believes acting is less about experience and more about emotional honesty and suitability to a character. And while speaking about the cast of his upcoming film, Main Vaapas Aaunga, Ali drew an interesting comparison between Vedang Raina and Alia Bhatt during her Highway days.
The filmmaker is preparing for the release of his upcoming film Main Vaapas Aaunga, starring Naseeruddin Shah, Diljit Dosanjh, Sharvari and Vedang Raina in leading roles. The story alternates between timelines, following a younger couple (Vedang Raina and Sharvari) torn apart by the Partition of India and an older narrative (Naseeruddin Shah) where Diljit Dosanjh uncovers this tragic and unfinished love story.
