Bhooth Bangla Box Office: Akshay Kumar’s Horror Comedy Haunts the Rs 70 Crore Mark — Is a HIT on the Cards?

Akshay Kumar is back doing what he does best — making audiences scream and laugh in the same breath. And this time, Bhooth Bangla is doing something even more impressive: growing its business on a Tuesday.

The film collected Rs 7.25 crore nett on Tuesday, a nearly 20% spike thanks to the discount day, bringing the 5-day total just short of Rs 70 crore nett. That kind of weekday jump? It doesn’t happen often. It tells you word-of-mouth is working.

The film is now on course for a first week of around Rs 78 crore. That’s a solid number for any Bollywood release in 2026.

Why Wednesday Could Be the Real Game-Changer?

Today is an important day for the film, as it could determine whether it becomes a HIT. Since the introduction of Discount Tuesday, a chunk of weekday business has shifted, and now Wednesday hold has become a determinant as well.

The film also compares well against its closest competitor. Bhooth Bangla avoided the kind of weekday drop seen by Jolly LLB 3 — it was on par on Friday and Saturday, around 10% ahead on Sunday, and extended that lead to over 15% on Monday.

That kind of sustained momentum is exactly what a box office hit needs to maintain its theatrical run. If the trajectory holds, Bhooth Bangla could comfortably enter the coveted HIT bracket.
