Bhooth Bangla began its second week with an approximate net revenue of Rs. 5.75 crore on Friday. That represents a 10% rise from the day before. With a loss of slightly more than 50%, the week-over-week hold was quite solid. The eight-day running total is approximately Rs. 86 crore nett. As a result, the Akshay Kumar movie has become a hit movie.
With the hold it had on Wednesday, it was practically a given that it would be an HIT; yesterday, the second Friday hold confirmed this. After Border 2 and Dhurandhar 2, it is the third Hindi film industry hit of the year. Notably, this is the actor’s first hit since OMG 2 in 2023.
Following the epidemic, Akshay Kumar had a difficult period at the box office due to a number of poor performances. Although his films weren’t hits, they weren’t duds either, so last year was a little better. Now there’s a hit movie as well. When Akshay Kumar is enjoying himself, the industry usually follows suit.
Even if he doesn’t make the massive Rs. 500 crore grossers, getting two or three HITs or popular movies a year is just as crucial since it keeps the box office running. Akshay Kumar distinguishes out in this regard since other actors in the business produce much less—some of them take two or three years to complete a single movie.
Returning to Bhooth Bangla, the movie is anticipated to earn approximately Rs. 25 crore nett over its second weekend, surpassing Rs. 105 crore nett by Sunday. With a slightly stronger trend, this will put it on track to reach Rs. 140 crore plus full run, possibly even Rs. 150 crore nett.
