The third day of Vibe was a gentle surge—₹3 crore on a Sunday, a 9.1% jump from the previous day. That lift pushed the total nett to ₹7.45 crore, nudging it above the ₹4 crore threshold it crossed earlier in the week. Kunal Khemu’s second directorial outing, which opened a bit shy, is now finding footing with word‑of‑mouth and a growing audience. The film’s blend of action, comedy and thriller feels fresh enough to keep casual viewers glued.
Across town, Meghna Gulzar’s crime drama Daayra is having a similar, albeit smaller, uptick. The Kareena Kapoor Khan‑Prithviraj Sukumaran duo has seen box‑office numbers climb over the weekend, indicating the film is slowly warming the crowd. While Vibe’s earnings hint at a steady climb, Daayra’s improvement suggests a sleeper hit could be on the cards.
Vibe marks Khemu’s first time as a producer and stars a trio of familiar faces—Preity Zinta, Sparsh Shrivastava and Vanshika Dhir, who makes her acting debut. The story follows two inseparable friends thrown into a fast‑paced adventure that tests their bond. The film’s genre mash‑up aims to appeal to a wide audience, from action buffs to thriller lovers.
If the current trajectory continues, Vibe could cross the ₹10 crore mark before the end of the first week. Daayra’s modest gains may translate into a longer theatrical run, especially if word‑of‑mouth spreads. For now, both films sit on a knife‑edge, but the numbers suggest the audience is slowly warming up to both stories.
