Kunal Kemmu’s second directorial venture, Vibe, clocked a 2.8 crore net haul on Saturday, lifting its two‑day domestic total to just above 5 crore. The numbers, reported by Koimoi, show the film maintaining a steady 21 percent occupancy across nearly 3,000 shows.
The opening Friday already gave the spy‑action comedy a solid footing, and the Saturday uptick suggests the audience buzz is translating into ticket sales. Compared with Kemmu’s debut, Madgaon Express, the new release has already outperformed the earlier film’s opening figures, according to the same trade tracker.
Audience reaction fuels the rise
Social chatter points to a blend of humor and high‑octane sequences as the main draw. Fans are especially highlighting Kemmu’s on‑screen charisma, the chemistry with co‑star Sparsh Srivastava, and Preity G Zinta’s action‑laden turn. Vanshika Dhir’s supporting performance is also gathering praise, Koimoi notes.
The film’s production house, Drongo Films, teamed up with Amazon MGM Studios for distribution, a partnership that seems to be paying off. Worldwide gross figures have already crossed the 7 crore mark, hinting at a healthy overseas reception alongside the domestic run.
Weekend outlook
Sunday morning shows opened strong, and trade analysts are betting the film will breach the 8 crore net threshold by the end of its opening weekend. If the trend holds, Vibe could comfortably join the list of modest‑budget comedies that turned a tidy profit.
While the film’s budget hasn’t been disclosed, the current trajectory suggests a respectable return on investment, especially for a genre that often relies on word‑of‑mouth rather than star power alone.
What’s next?
The next few days will be crucial. A dip in occupancy could stall the weekend tally, but early indicators point to sustained interest. With more screens being added for the Monday‑Tuesday stretch, the film may even edge closer to the coveted 10‑crore club.
For now, Kemmu’s Vibe stands as proof of the audience’s appetite for light‑hearted espionage fare, and the numbers will tell whether the buzz translates into a lasting box‑office run.
Stay tuned for the final weekend figures and any updates on the film’s overseas performance.
