Bhooth Bangla Week 6 Collection: Film earns Rs. 5.45 Crore; Becomes the 3rd highest grossing movie of the year
Bhooth Bangla, directed by Priyadarshan and starring Akshay Kumar, has been one of the most talked-about reunions in recent Bollywood history. Bringing back the iconic duo that gave us legendary comedies, this film has successfully blended horror and humor to keep audiences coming back even in its sixth week. As of day 42, the movie has officially cemented its status as the third highest-grossing film of the year, sitting just behind Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge and Border 2. The sixth week performance has been quite a surprise, especially on its final day. On day 42, which was a Thursday, the film collected 0.85 crore net. This is a massive 54.5% growth compared to the previous day’s 0.55 crore. This jump is particularly impressive given that the film has been in theaters for six weeks and was running across 1,575 shows on that day alone. To date, the movie has been screened across a staggering 231,888 shows globally. The ticket sales data on BookMyShow gives us a clear picture of how the sixth week progressed.
