Bhooth Bangla: Akshay Kumar's Latest Hit Approaches 100 Crore Milestone!

Bhooth Bangla's Box Office Triumph

Priyadarshan's newest venture, Bhooth Bangla, is on the brink of joining the elite 100 crore club at the Indian box office. This fantasy horror-comedy has made a significant impact, achieving the third-highest opening week of 2026 in Bollywood. Furthermore, it stands as Akshay Kumar's fifth highest-grossing film since the COVID-19 pandemic began, highlighting its appeal to viewers.

The film wrapped up its first week on a high note, establishing itself as a favorite among cinema-goers. Recent reports indicate that Bhooth Bangla garnered 5.83 crore net on its seventh day, showcasing robust performance despite mid-week hurdles. The film experienced only a 14% decline in earnings from the previous day, accumulating a remarkable total of 95.68 crore net at the Indian box office.

Produced with an estimated budget of 120 crore, Bhooth Bangla has successfully recouped 80% of its total investment within just one week. Its opening week performance has outshined O’Romeo, which earned 52.51 crore, placing Bhooth Bangla just behind Dhurandhar 2 and Border 2 in terms of box office success for 2026.

In addition to its impressive box office figures, Bhooth Bangla has climbed the ranks among Akshay Kumar's post-COVID releases. It has surpassed Kesari Chapter 2, now holding the fifth spot among his highest-grossing films during this period. The film's next goal is to surpass Sky Force, but first, it aims to officially cross the 100 crore threshold, marking a significant achievement in its box office journey.

As the film continues to thrive, industry experts are closely monitoring its trajectory. With its unique combination of humor and horror, Bhooth Bangla has struck a chord with audiences, and its success could pave the way for more films in this genre in the future. Ongoing box office updates will shed light on its performance in the days ahead.
