Vicky Kaushal and Sarah Jane Dias starrer Zubaan box office collections have started on a very slow note indeed on day 1 with a negligible occupancy rate – on the other hand Jai Gangaajal, the other Friday release, managed just 15% despite having an A-lister star in the form of Priyanka Chopra.

As such, there are no expectations that Zubaan will disturb the B.O. much. As far as performances are concerned, the film, which is all about love, ambition, trust, faith and betrayal, rests mostly on the shoulders of its lead cast Vicky Kaushal and Sarah Jane Dias. Zubaan, which happens to be Kaushal's second film (his debut being Masaan) also sees him grow superlatively as an actor. On the other hand, Sarah Jane Dias, besides looking good, has also contributed immensely towards the film. Her performance in this film will definitely go down as one of her most memorable performances. The other actors too bring in top notch performances in the film, which helps the film's progress in a smooth manner minus any errors. (Bollywood Hungama)

As for the next few days, Zubaan is expected to continue in this manner. One of the major problems with the film was that it was not shown in morning shows at theatres. For whatever it is worth, if people liked it later in the day when the film became available for public viewing, the word of mouth may help it pick up pace at the box office courtesy the fine show put up by the lead pair.

Another positive for Zubaan that may help its box office collections are the songs. The film does pack some good music (Ashu Phatak, Ishq Bector, Shree D, Manraj Patar). Songs like 'Dhruvtara' and 'Kori Pukaar' stay with you for a long time. Other songs are not as appealing, but that doesn't hamper the show. The USP of the film's music is that it has been integrated properly at the right juncture. (Bollywood Hungama)
