An extraordinary event is unfolding in the Hindi Cinema trade, one that has been absent for an extended period.
Following the Independence Day weekend success of Stree 2, the trade industry initially dismissed "Khel Khel Mein." However, the audience response suggests otherwise.
"Khel Khel Mein" witnessed a remarkable 100% increase in viewership from its second Friday to Saturday, an unprecedented occurrence in recent times.
Despite limited screenings, "Khel Khel Mein" is showing promising signs of success. The film's performance on its second Sunday suggests that the trade may need to reconsider its initial assessment. This unexpected success could signal a resurgence of sleeper hits, a phenomenon that has become less common in recent years.
Akshay Kumar plays a plastic surgeon named Rishabh who is facing marital problems. His wife, Vartika, has given him an ultimatum to improve their relationship within three months or face divorce. Rishabh, who is also a typical husband with secrets, is struggling to meet Vartika's expectations.

The film features a star-studded cast, including Vaani Kapoor, Fardeen Khan, Ammy Virk, and Taapsee Pannu. The trailer suggests a lighthearted yet complex story set in a single location, where the characters participate in a game that uncovers their secrets.
According to Moneycontrol's review of Khel Khel Mein, Fardeen Khan's performance as Kabir, the only single person in the group of couples was one of the most impressive roles. Aziz's introduction of homosexuality in the script, while focused on shock value, was still noteworthy. The film's cameos from Bhumi Pednekar and Chitrangada Singh were also well-received.
