Vibe Budget: Approximately ₹40 crore
Vibe Screens: Around 2,000 screens in India

Kunal Kemmu and Preity Zinta starrer Vibe has opened in cinemas across India on Friday, September 18, 2026. According to the trade figures provided, the film has recorded an estimated ₹1–2 crore nett on Day 1 in India.

The film, which also stars Sparsh Shrivastava, Yashpal Sharma and Vanshika Dhir, has been released across approximately 2,000 screens in India.

The opening puts Vibe among the lower first-day performers of 2026 Hindi cinema based on the supplied trade estimates. The film is also releasing alongside Daayra, another Hindi release arriving in theatres this week.

Vibe Box Office Collection Day 1

According to the available trade estimate, Vibe has collected around ₹1–2 crore nett on its opening day in India.

Friday collections are particularly important for a film because the opening establishes its initial theatrical momentum. For Vibe, the Day 1 figure will need to be followed by stronger collections over the first weekend if the movie is to build a substantial theatrical total.

At this stage, worldwide gross figures for Day 1 have not been provided in the supplied data. Therefore, the ₹1–2 crore figure should be treated as an India nett trade estimate, rather than a confirmed worldwide gross.

Vibe Budget

The reported production budget of Vibe is approximately ₹40 crore, including production, salaries and promotional expenses.

According to the figures provided, Kunal Kemmu is reportedly receiving around ₹2 crore plus a profit-sharing arrangement, while Preity Zinta’s reported remuneration is around ₹4 crore.

The remaining budget includes production expenses, supporting cast remuneration, crew costs, locations, post-production, marketing, promotions and other associated theatrical expenses.

Because budget figures are often not officially disclosed in full, the ₹40 crore figure should be considered an estimated budget.

Vibe Screens

Vibe has been released across approximately 2,000 screens in India.

A wide theatrical release gives the film access to a large potential audience, but screen count alone does not determine box-office performance. Occupancy, show timings, audience response, competition and weekend growth all influence the final theatrical run.

Vibe vs Daayra Box Office Opening

Vibe and Daayra are among the Hindi films competing for audiences during the September 18 weekend.

Based on the supplied Day 1 estimates, Vibe is recording a higher opening than Daayra. Daayra is estimated at approximately ₹0.5–1 crore nett on its first day.

Daayra₹0.5–1 crore*

The first weekend will provide a clearer indication of how both films perform after their initial Friday opening.

Vibe Hit or Flop: What Does the Film Need?

With an estimated budget of around ₹40 crore, Vibe has a significant theatrical recovery target.

Based on the economics provided, the film would need approximately ₹30 crore in theatrical business to reach the stated average benchmark, while around ₹40 crore would be required for the stated hit benchmark.

However, box-office verdicts cannot always be determined simply by comparing a film’s India nett collection with its reported production budget. Theatrical distributor share, satellite rights, digital rights, music rights, overseas revenue, distribution costs and other commercial arrangements can also affect a film’s overall economics.

Therefore, the ₹30 crore and ₹40 crore figures should be understood as the trade benchmarks supplied for this analysis, rather than universal industry definitions of an average or hit film.

Based on the supplied trade figures, Vibe’s opening falls within the lower section of the 2026 Hindi opening-day list.

Vibe Box Office Collection: What to Watch Next

The most important factor for Vibe now will be its Saturday and Sunday growth.

A film with a relatively modest Friday opening generally needs significant weekend growth to build a stronger theatrical total. The next two days will therefore be important for determining whether Vibe can increase occupancy and establish a sustained run.

Key factors to watch include:

  • Saturday box-office growth
  • Sunday collections
  • Weekend occupancy
  • Urban versus smaller-city performance
  • Audience response
  • Competition from other releases
  • Monday hold
  • Number of shows retained by cinemas
  • Overseas performance

Vibe Worldwide Box Office Collection

At present, the supplied figure of ₹1–2 crore refers to India’s nett trade estimate. A confirmed worldwide gross requires adding the film’s overseas theatrical collections and converting the India nett figure into the appropriate gross figure.

Therefore, the worldwide total should not be calculated simply by adding an assumed overseas amount to the India nett collection.

As overseas and gross figures become available, the worldwide box-office table can be updated accordingly.
