Filmmaker Imtiaz Ali's Main Vaapas Aaunga has been gaining traction at the box office, but it's also sparked a social media debate with some calling it 'anti-national'.

However, Oscar-winning composer AR Rahman has now laughed off the criticism, sharing a satirical post on Instagram that mocked the claims.

The post, which wondered if the film was 'anti-national' for showing Pakistan without terrorists and secret agents, was shared by Rahman with a laughing emoji.

Main Vaapas Aaunga marks the fifth collaboration between Rahman and Imtiaz Ali, and it's been well-received by audiences, with positive word-of-mouth helping boost its collections.

The film, which explores themes of love, loss, memory, migration and belonging, has collected ₹9.81 crore at the box office so far, and it remains to be seen whether the strong word of mouth can revive its box-office run.
