The Vishwak Sen and Kayadu Lohar starrer Funky is seeing a decent weekend at the Indian box office. After a solid opening on Friday, the film showed a small growth on Saturday, thanks to the Valentine’s Day buzz. Early trends for Sunday (Day 3) suggest a typical weekend drop, but the numbers are still holding better than many expected for a mid-budget Telugu comedy.
Saturday’s collections picked up nicely in key areas like Nizam and Andhra Pradesh, where family crowds turned up. Sunday morning shows are running at average occupancy, but evening and night slots are looking stronger in urban centres. This points to the film benefiting from positive word-of-mouth among younger audiences who enjoyed the light-hearted vibes.
Overall, Funky is proving to be a steady performer rather than a blockbuster, which is common for romantic comedies without massive star power or heavy action. With no big competition in Telugu this weekend, it has a clear window to build, though the coming weekdays will be the real test.

About Funky and Future Prediction
Funky is a fun, breezy romantic comedy directed by Anudeep KV. It follows a chaotic filmmaker (Vishwak Sen) trying to wrap up a troubled shoot, with Kayadu Lohar playing the bubbly female lead who adds plenty of charm and laughs. The film mixes meta humour, relatable relationship drama, and some over-the-top comedy moments that have struck a chord with audiences looking for light entertainment.
Reviews have been mostly positive on the comedy and performances, though some have pointed out pacing issues in the second half. Vishwak Sen’s comic timing and Kayadu’s fresh screen presence are being talked about a lot on social media. The Valentine’s Day release helped it connect with couples and youth, giving it that extra push on the first two days.
Looking ahead, Funky needs strong holds over the next few days to turn this into a profitable run. The budget is modest at around ₹15 crore, so even a ₹30-35 crore India net lifetime could make it a safe hit. If the word-of-mouth stays good and it picks up in Tier-2 and Tier-3 centres, it has a fair shot at crossing the break-even mark comfortably. But if the drop continues sharply on Monday, it might end up as an average fare. Early signs are encouraging though – this could be the small win Vishwak Sen needed after a string of misses.
