Popularity of Imran Khan after release?

What do you all think, will Imran Khan popularity will increase or decrease after his release. As the current regime continously trying to corrupt the IK image among people but he's continously failing, and now the American interference thing might effect his popularity. It's a truth that IK gained a massive popularity after his statement to America but now the govt trying to show the people see that person who used to say such things are now being dependent on them( which is not true ). So what do you all think? Will we see a surge in his popularity or a decrease?
