Trade Analyst Taran Adarsh has confirmed that 'Kahaani' which was made in a shoestring budget of 8 crore had earned 2.95 crore on Friday after its release and on Saturday the flick collected 4.5 crore.

"The film has opened very well. The collection in India on Friday was Rs. 2.95 crore and on Saturday it earned Rs. 4.5 crore. A full-pack show is expected on Sunday. The film will definitely survive for over a week," Taran Adarsh confirmed.

Gautam Dutta, COO, PVR also confirmed that the movie has transcended what they had expected from it.

Vidya’s successful acting career has helped her to get the hang of film direction. News has it that in her upcoming movie ‘Kahaani’, the actress has even helped director Sujoy Ghosh with making of the film.

Eventually director Ghosh got so impressed with Vidya’s film making talent that he offered the actress to direct his next film.

"Sujoy has been saying this for a long time. He has even told me that he will soon write a script for me. But I don`t think I can ever direct a film," said the actress.

At a recent promotional event, the actress admitted that she enjoys promoting her movie and carrying the character to the masses.

The actor grabbed a lot of attention when he did this spur of the moment act so much so that it even shocked Deepika and filmmaker Subhash Ghai.
