Akshay Kumar - Bhoot Bangla
Priyadarshan’s Bhooth Bangla, led by Akshay Kumar, has wrapped up its opening week on a solid note at the Indian box office. Despite facing competition from Dhurandhar 2, the horror-comedy has sustained steady momentum through the weekdays.
The film is now on the verge of entering the ₹100 crore club, emerging as one of the stronger performers of the year so far. With consistent footfalls and stable trends, it has secured a spot among the top opening weeks of 2026.
As per early trends, Bhooth Bangla has collected in the range of ₹5–6 crore on its seventh day. This reflects a marginal drop from Wednesday’s ₹6.80 crore, indicating a steady weekday hold rather than a sharp decline.
The overall net collection after seven days is estimated to be in the range of ₹94.85 crore to ₹95.85 crore. The film is now expected to cross the ₹100 crore milestone on Day 8, entering the second week on a significant high.
However, a reduction in show count is expected from Friday due to the release of Ginny Weds Sunny 2, which could slightly impact its screen share.
Total: ₹94.85–95.85 crore
With this performance, Bhooth Bangla has surpassed O’Romeo to secure the third position among the highest Bollywood opening weeks of 2026.
It currently stands behind Dhurandhar 2 and Border 2, both of which have posted significantly higher numbers.
Given the current trend, Bhooth Bangla is expected to cross the ₹100 crore mark by Day 8. The second weekend will be crucial in determining its long-term trajectory, especially with new competition entering the market.
Considering its ₹120 crore budget, the film is on track to move towards recovery, but sustained weekend growth will be essential for it to emerge as a success. A strong second weekend could push its lifetime total towards the ₹140–160 crore range, depending on hold and competition.
