Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, led by Kartik Aaryan, has had an impressive run at the Indian box office, especially in its second week. The film’s solid performance during the Diwali period and its strong hold in the subsequent weeks suggest it could be on its way to crossing the 300 crore milestone in the coming days.
Here’s a breakdown of the box office numbers:
Week 2 (Friday to Thursday): The film earned a total of ₹66.01-66.21 crores in its second week alone, with the highest jump seen on days 8-10. From ₹12.40 crores on Day 8 (second Friday) to ₹17.40 crores on Day 9, and ₹18.10 crores on Day 10, the film showed robust growth. Days 11 to 13 saw the numbers steadying with ₹5.40 crores, ₹4.40 crores, and ₹4.21 crores respectively.
Day 14 (Second Thursday): Early trends suggest the film earned ₹4.10-4.30 crores, maintaining strong occupancy in the evening and night shows despite the release of Kanguva in the Hindi market. This marks a minimal drop from the previous day’s ₹4.21 crores, showing a superb hold.
Total after Week 2: The film has earned ₹234.87-235.07 crores net at the Indian box office so far. This solid performance suggests a strong upward trajectory for the film in the coming weeks, especially considering the lack of significant competition in the immediate future.
Given its consistency and favorable trends, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 is well-positioned to achieve continued success, and a box office total in the ₹300 crore range seems quite achievable in the next few weeks.
The film has clearly benefitted from the festive period and the fan following around its predecessor, but the key to its ongoing success will be maintaining momentum and drawing audiences in, especially with the upcoming releases in the competitive festive season.
