After more than two weeks in cinemas, Bhooth Bangla is still holding its ground, but not without a few hurdles. The horror-comedy picked up pace on its third Sunday, showing a noticeable jump in numbers. Yet, despite the boost, one key milestone continues to remain just out of reach.

Sunday Brings A Much-Needed Boost

According to industry tracker Sacnilk, the film witnessed a clear uptick in collections on Day 17, adding Rs 5.50 crore to its India net. This marked a 26.4% rise compared to Day 16, when it earned Rs 4.35 crore.

Running across 4,249 shows nationwide, the film managed to draw audiences back into theatres, underlining its continued appeal even in its third week.

India Total Nears Rs 150 Crore, But Doesn’t Cross It

Despite the encouraging Sunday numbers, Bhooth Bangla fell short of crossing the Rs 150 crore mark domestically. By the end of Day 17, its total India net stood at Rs 142.50 crore, with a gross collection of Rs 169.27 crore.

The film’s journey so far has been steady rather than explosive. It has been marked by consistent performance, weekend spikes, and expected weekday slowdowns.

Overseas Performance Pushes Global Total Higher

While domestic numbers remain just below a major benchmark, the film’s overseas performance continues to support its overall run. On Day 17, it added Rs 1.25 crore internationally, taking its overseas gross to Rs 56.25 crore.

This brings the worldwide total to an impressive Rs 225.52 crore, according to Sacnilk’s final estimates.

First Week Laid The Foundation

Much of the film’s success can be traced back to its opening week. During the first seven days, Bhooth Bangla collected Rs 84.40 crore in India net, benefiting from strong word of mouth and widespread release.

With more than 70,000 shows in its initial week alone, the film secured a solid presence across cinemas, something that continues to reflect in its sustained performance.
