In this Diwali season, two new big Bollywood flicks – Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 and Singham Again – have been released with huge competition on the big screen.
Even though the two movies had decent openings, it can be said without doubt – now – that the Kartik Aaryan horror-comedy Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 is where it matters, boiling down to India’s net business at a staggering Rs 212.10 crore at the box office, as per early trade figures. On its 13th day, the film collected Rs 3.85 crore, beating Singham Again, starring Ajay Devgn, which collected Rs 3.15 crore only.
The Singham Again film, which is directed by Rohit Shetty, till now touched Rs 217.65 crore India net. But it seems to be lagging a bit behind Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, which has a wider appeal. On the other hand, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 has maintained 4,000 shows across India, while Singham Again screens have occupied around 3,700 and have faded to almost 300.
Both films fared well over the weekend, but Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 remained ahead of others consistently this weekend. While the horror-comedy raked in Rs 42 crore over the second weekend from Friday to Sunday, Singham Again managed a mere Rs 34 crore during the same time span.
The pan-India film Kanguva, starring Suriya and Bobby Deol, with tremendous buzz, released on the same day and is expected to affect the gross collection of Singham Again and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3. Nonetheless, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 continues to be in the lead; the makers claimed to have earned more – Rs 216.76 crore as declared on social media platforms, Rs 18.10 crore earned on Sunday in particular.
The coming weeks would then decide whether Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 can sustain its position or Kanguva can claim the throne at the Box office.
