The movie Zwigato, starring Shahana Goswami and Kapil Sharma, continued to perform poorly on Saturday even though it saw a slight increase from its meager 43 lakhs debut. After two days of release, the poignant drama helmed by actor-director Nandita Das has earned 1.05 crore. The story centers on a meal delivery man and the challenges he faces working in the gig economy.

Taran Adarsh, a cinema trade expert, tweeted on Sunday about the movie's second-day earnings:: "Zwigato witnesses an upward trend on day 2 [+44.19 percent], but the 2-day total remains very low due to its biz on day 1… Biz (business) needs to have a miraculous turnaround/jump on day 3 for a respectable weekend total… Friday ₹43 lahks, Saturday ₹62 lahks. Total: ₹1.05 crore. India biz.”

Zwigato was originally intended to be a 20-minute short film, but Nandita Das later chose to turn it into a feature film due to its intriguing subject matter. The movie was shown at the Busan International Film Festival, the International Film Festival of Kerala, and the Toronto International Film Festival.

Nandita stated regarding her decision to cast Kapil in the lead role: "I didn't know much about Kapil Sharma because I hadn't watched his show. But one day, I stumbled onto a video of Kapil at an awards ceremony. I had the aam aadmi ki tarah hai feeling after seeing that clip. His speech patterns and body language are those of the average man."
