Taran Adrash took to X and tweeted, “#VickyVidyaKaWohWalaVideo starts off well, though there were expectations for a higher opening, particularly after the trailer garnered a strong positive response. Following the blockbuster success of #Stree2, there were expectations that #VVKWWV would open close to double digits, especially with #RajkummarRao headlining the cast. Mass circuits fared well [has scope to grow], while the urban centres performed decent/good. The numbers are expected to see a boost today [Saturday] thanks to the #Dussehra holiday, with Sunday likely to continue the upward trend... However, it’s the make-or-break Monday that will be the real decider. [Week 1] Fri ₹ 5.71 cr. #India biz. Nett BOC. #Boxoffice”

For the Alia Bhatt starrer, he wrote, “#Jigra opens to lower-than-expected numbers, with a significant contribution from urban centres dominating the Day 1 biz, thanks to the star-power [#AliaBhatt]. As anticipated, the response from mass pockets is ordinary/lukewarm... An energetic start in the #Hindi heartland would've bolstered the opening day performance. Looking ahead, the #Dussehra holiday today [Saturday] should help offset the initial shortfall... Sunday is also expected to provide a much-needed boost to the numbers. Monday, however, will offer a clearer picture of how well the film
