Kunal Kemmu Clarifies 'Vibe' Is Not a Spoof of 'Pathaan' or 'Tiger'PreviousNext

Kunal Kemmu clarified that his upcoming film "Vibe" is not a spoof or parody of Bollywood spy films like "Pathaan" and "Tiger." The film, which he wrote and directed, follows two friends with no spy experience caught in a high-stakes mission. References to popular spy characters are included as relatable pop culture touchpoints, reflecting how an ordinary person might react in such situations. Kemmu emphasized the story's logical progression and that it is not intended to mock existing spy franchises.
