This is a massive win after his previous film Satyameva Jayate 2 tanked. Zaveri credits actor Harshvardhan Rane for this epic comeback, saying Rane’s solid support was a lifesaver during his difficult period. Milap Milan Zaveri the man behind films like ‘Marjaavan’ and ‘Satyameva Jayate’ is experiencing a rare moment of creative and emotional triumph. His latest directorial venture, ‘Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat’ with Harshvardhan Rane<\/a> and Sonam Bajwa just completed a month at the ticket window and in India alone the film is touching Rs 79 crore mark despite clashing with Ayushmann Khurrana and Rashmika Mandanna\u2019s ‘Thamma’.

Few publications are calling it the third super hit of the year after Chhaava and Saiyaara and all of that feels extremely humbling. And it’s taken a while to reach here, especially since the last four years, to get such a huge blockbuster as a director.\u201d<\/p>\n
