According to the film’s end credits and IMDbactress Amardeep Jha62, played Raju’s mother (Mrs Rastogi). Vineeta Singh did not appear in this film.
According to her LinkedIn page, Vineeta was working as a director for a private firm in 2009, when the movie was released.
However, when a similar post went viral in 2022, Vineeta replicated the scenario from 3 Idiots and wrote, “All is not well! Pause with the Photoshopping.”
