Bhooth Bangla Day 22 Box Office: Horror-Comedy Earns Rs. 1.75 Cr Net; Maintains Flat Hold Compared To Thursday

Bhooth Bangla has entered its fourth week of theatrical run, and the performance on Day 22 shows a high level of stability. The film collected ₹1.75 crore on its fourth Friday, which is the same as its collection from Thursday. This flat hold is a positive trend for the movie, indicating that it is maintaining a steady pace at the ticket windows as it transitions into the fourth weekend.

On the all-time list of highest 22nd-day collections for Bollywood, Bhooth Bangla has secured the 29th position. With a collection of ₹1.75 crore, the film has managed to outperform the 22nd-day numbers of several big titles. This includes Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 (₹1.56 crore), Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 (₹1.40 crore), and even action films like War and Tiger Zinda Hai.

With this steady Friday performance, the total India net collection for Bhooth Bangla now stands at ₹151.75 crore. If we include the gross collections, the domestic total reaches ₹180.06 crore. The film is also finding some traction in the international market, adding ₹0.10 crore on Day 22 to take its overseas gross to ₹52.95 crore. Combining all these figures, the worldwide gross collection has now reached ₹233.01 crore, solidifying its status as a significant commercial success.

Bhooth Bangla's collection on its 22nd day is significantly higher than what many of Akshay Kumar’s previous releases earned at the same point in their theatrical run. While this film collected ₹1.75 crore on Day 22, several of his other major post-COVID hits were trending well below this mark by their fourth Friday.Here is how some of his other notable releases performed on their 22nd day:

• Bhooth Bangla:₹1.75 Cr
• OMG 2: ₹1.10 Cr
• Kesari: ₹0.95 Cr
• Sooryavanshi: ₹0.71 Cr
• Jolly LLB 3: ₹0.50 Cr
• Housefull 5: ₹0.30 Cr

Looking at the theatrical activity, the movie was playing across 3,939 shows on Friday with an overall occupancy of 10.0%. In the major national multiplex chains like PVR, INOX, and Cinepolis, the film tracked about 3,356 tickets from 1,400+ shows. PVR led these chains with 1,570 tickets sold, followed by INOX with 1,190. While the occupancy in these premium chains was lower at 1.12%, the broader performance across single screens and smaller centers seems to be providing the bulk of the stability.

The ticket booking trends on BookMyShow further highlight how the film has maintained momentum over the weeks. Starting with 170K pre-sales, it sold 1.45 million tickets in its first week and 811K in the second week. Even in its third week, it managed a healthy 401K tickets. For its fourth Friday specifically, the film saw 28.38K tickets booked, bringing the total count to over 28.64 lakh tickets. These are very healthy numbers for a mid-budget film entering its fourth week of run.
