Actress Shilpa Shetty has caught the VIBE bug, joining the viral social media trend tied to actor-filmmaker Kunal Kemmu's upcoming film of the same name, due in cinemas on 18 September. The Hungama 2 star took to Instagram to share her own take on the trending challenge, cheering on the cast in the process.

Shilpa's Yacht Moment

Preity Zinta on the Hectic Shoot

Preity Zinta recently opened up about the demanding schedule she navigated while filming VIBE. She revealed she had to shuttle between India and the United States, where her children are based, while simultaneously managing other professional commitments.

'I was already doing something intense, so I wanted to balance that out by doing something fun. And if it's hectic, yes, it is hectic because my kids are in America, so I had to shuffle between the two countries. But it was worth it. It was a lot of hard work, a lot of fun, a lot of discovery. So yes, I enjoyed it,' Zinta said.

Zinta also explained what drew her to the script in the first place: 'When I first read the script, I really enjoyed it. I laughed a lot. Toh mujhe laga, agar main as an actor itna has rahi hoon, so I'm sure once the actors perform in it and it's put together, it'll be wow. And it's a fun vibe, a fun ride, as you'd say. So definitely, it was based on the script.'

The Viral Challenge Builds Buzz

The VIBE social media challenge has been gathering momentum ahead of the film's release, with cast members and celebrity friends alike participating. Shilpa Shetty's entry into the trend — and her playful tagging of Sara Ali Khan (handle @sakpataudi) — is likely to amplify pre-release interest further. With the film just days away from its theatrical debut, the organic buzz signals a well-timed promotional strategy by the makers.
