The Monday Test: Earnings Dip, But Hold Remains Strong
It is often said that a film’s true test takes place on a ‘Monday.’ Following the weekend festivities, box-office collections for films typically witness a drop on working days. The same trend was observed with Bhoot Bangla. According to a report by Sacnilk:
Monday (Day 4) Earnings: ₹6.75 Crores
Total India Net Collection: ₹64.75 Crores
Worldwide Gross Collection: ₹106.34 Crores (A Major Milestone Crossed!)
Akshay’s Star Power Shines Over the Weekend
The film got off to a highly promising start. After raking in ₹3.75 Crores from paid previews, the film opened its account on Day 1 with earnings of ₹12.25 Crores. On Saturday, this figure rose to ₹19 Crores, and on Sunday, the film surprised everyone by earning a whopping ₹23 Crores.
What is the Story of Bhoot Bangla?
The film’s narrative revolves around Arjun (Akshay Kumar) and his sister (Mithila Palkar). The plot takes a twist when they inherit a magnificent palace. However, the twists don’t end there! Arjun arrives in the village of ‘Mangalpur’ for his sister’s wedding—a place haunted by the terror of a demon named ‘Vadhusur.’
The story offers a blend of horror and comedy in true Priyadarshan style. The on-screen chemistry between Rajpal Yadav and Akshay is once again reminding audiences of the good old days.
A Stellar Cast and Production
The film features not just Akshay, but an entire army of talented actors:
Lead Cast: Tabu, Wamiqa Gabbi, Mithila Palkar, Rajpal Yadav, and Jisshu Sengupta.
Producers: Akshay Kumar, Shobha Kapoor, and Ekta Kapoor.
Banners: Balaji Motion Pictures and Cape of Good Films.
If you are looking to enjoy a horror film that also leaves you in stitches, ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa’ makes for an excellent addition to your weekend plans. Although the film’s earnings dipped into single digits on Monday, crossing the ₹100 crore mark worldwide stands as a major victory for Akshay Kumar.
