India, June 24 -- Art truly heals, and Imtiaz Ali's Main Vaapas Aaunga has done something to my brain chemistry. In an increasingly divisive and war-stricken world, what we consume becomes food for thought. And in 2026, what we are mostly consuming is a barrage of misinformation, disguised as quick dopamine hits, altered to please the algorithm Gods and with a side of hysteria peddled endlessly. But here's a film that has given an opportunity to not look away, but tackle the politics of hate with love, longing and belonging. As an outlet of grief and pain, as old as the ghosts of partition. Starring Sharvari, Vedang Raina, Diljit Dosanjh and Naseeruddin Shah, the film is the talk of the town for all the right reasons.

A lot has been spok...
