Funky box office: Vishwak Sen's film has started on a dull note. More than the film the producer Naga Vamsi is being trolled brutally for his over the top statements

Funky day 2 box office
Funky is Vishwak Sen’s latest release, and the film carried significant pressure at the box office. The young actor has been going through a rough phase with a series of underwhelming films in recent years.

Hoping to bounce back strongly, he teamed up with popular director Anudeep, who previously delivered successful entertainers like Jathi Ratnalu and Prince. Adding to the buzz, Funky was produced by the makers of DJ Tillu which created decent pre-release hype.
The trailer received a fair response, and Anudeep’s promotional interviews kept the film in the news. However, upon release, the film opened to negative word of mouth and was heavily trolled on social media from day one.
As per trade reports from Sacnilk, Funky collected ₹2.3 crore net on its opening day. On day two, the film managed to earn around ₹2 crore. These numbers are considered disappointing, especially when compared to Vishwak Sen’s earlier films. With less than ₹5 crore collected in two days, the film faces an uphill task in recovering its investment.
To make matters worse, an India-Pakistan cricket match during the weekend is expected to further affect box office collections.
The film has drawn criticism for its silly humor, lack of a solid screenplay, and illogical narration. While the comedy works in parts, many feel that the execution falls flat.
Vishwak Sen delivers a decent performance and maintains good screen presence. However, it is Kayadu Lohar who steals the show. Her charm, glamour, and confident acting have won appreciation from the audience, and many believe she is the biggest takeaway from the film.
On the digital front, Netflix has reportedly acquired the OTT rights for a significant price and plans to stream the film by the end of the month. Producer Raga Vamsi’s recent comments about critics being harsh have sparked further debate online.
Whether Funky finds redemption on OTT remains to be seen. Stay tuned for more updates.
