Akshay Kumar's 'Bhooth Bangla' Reaches Rs 143 Crore at Indian Box Office

The horror comedy 'Bhooth Bangla', starring Akshay Kumar and directed by Priyadarshan, has accumulated a total of Rs 143 crore nett at the Indian box office. This figure follows the film's third-week collections, which amounted to Rs 21 crore.

On its third Thursday, 'Bhooth Bangla' is estimated to have collected Rs 1.40 crore. The third week saw a drop of nearly 50 percent in earnings compared to the previous week.

The film's weekly breakdown shows a strong start, with Rs 80.50 crore collected in its first week, followed by Rs 41.50 crore in the second week. The daily collections for the third week were: Rs 4.50 crore on Friday, Rs 4.50 crore on Saturday, Rs 5.50 crore on Sunday, Rs 1.60 crore on Monday, Rs 2.00 crore on Tuesday, and Rs 1.50 crore on Wednesday.

Looking ahead, 'Bhooth Bangla' is projected to add approximately Rs 9 to 10 crore in its fourth week, potentially pushing its total past the Rs 150 crore mark. The film's full run is currently anticipated to reach between Rs 155 crore and Rs 160 crore.

This performance marks a significant achievement for Akshay Kumar, who has experienced a varied box office run since the pandemic. 'Bhooth Bangla' is considered a 'HIT' film, contributing to a period of better box office results for the actor. His consistent output is noted as important for maintaining momentum within the industry, distinguishing him from many peers who release fewer films, with Ajay Devgn being another actor known for regular releases.

According to Pinkvilla, the box office figures are compiled from various sources and research, providing an adequate indication of the film's performance.
