In his post, Sesh wrote, "#MaiVaapasAaunga is a Modern Day Classic about an Era Gone by. Truly one of #ImtiazAli sir's best films, this story reflects the pinnacle of his ideas - relationships across eras, tender moments that remain forever, and most importantly, the belief in the human yearning to want love, to give it, that LOVE is bigger than any amount of hate that the world can throw at us."

Jun 11, 2026Speaking further about the film, Adivi Sesh said, "What stayed with me long after the film ended was its sincerity.

Imtiaz Ali sir has always had a unique ability to capture love in its most vulnerable and honest form, and this film is a beautiful reminder of that. It's rare to watch a film that feels both deeply personal and universally relatable at the same time. I walked away moved, inspired, and grateful as a viewer."
