Not many people would have bet on a Vikram Bhatt horror sequel doing solid business at the 2026 box office. The genre had been written off for years. And yet, here we are — Haunted 3D: Echoes Of The Past is quietly putting up numbers that are hard to ignore.
Haunted 3D: Day-by-Day Box Office Breakdown
| Day | Collection |
|---|---|
| Day 1 (Friday) | Rs. 2.35 crore |
| Day 2 (Saturday) | Rs. 3.00 crore |
| Day 3 (Sunday) | Rs. 3.50 crore |
| Day 4 (Monday) | Rs. 1.50 crore |
| Day 5 (Tuesday) | Rs. 1.75 crore (est.) |
| 5-Day Total | Rs. 12.10 crore |
Tuesday Sees a Healthy 15% Jump
After a 35% Monday dip — fairly standard for any non-blockbuster — Tuesday bounced back with an estimated Rs. 1.75 crore, a 15% spike over the previous day. That kind of weekday recovery is a healthy sign for a mid-budget horror film, and it points to strong word-of-mouth still driving footfalls into cinemas.
With this trajectory, the film is on course to wrap up its first week around Rs. 15 crore nett in India — a number that makes it a profitable venture given the scale of the production.

Why This Result Matters?
Here’s the thing — the original Haunted 3D (2011) was a legitimate hit. But in the years that followed, the Vikram Bhatt brand of supernatural horror — think the Raaz series — largely struggled to connect with multiplex audiences, leading many to write off the format entirely.
Echoes Of The Past, starring Mimoh Chakraborty, Chetna Pande, Gaurav Bajpai, Praneet Bhatt, and Mannveer Choudhary, challenges that narrative. It proves that the appetite for atmospheric, low-budget horror isn’t dead — it just needed the right film. The 3D format, which has seen a broader revival globally as explored in Wikipedia’s overview of 3D film, clearly adds to the theatrical pull here.
The one honest caveat: had the film been made with noticeably better production values, these numbers might have been significantly higher. The bones are clearly there.
What to Watch Next?
All eyes are now on Week 2 holds. If the film can maintain decent screens and pull consistent weekday numbers in the Rs. 1–1.5 crore range, a final total in the Rs. 18–20 crore range is achievable — putting it firmly in the success column for a film of this budget.
