Akshay Kumar’s horror-comedy Bhooth Bangla continues its steady run at the ticket window, registering a solid hold on its first Monday.
The film, directed by Priyadarshan, has managed to secure a spot among the top-performing first Mondays in terms of BookMyShow (BMS) ticket sales for Bollywood releases of 2025–26. With consistent traction since release, the film is showing encouraging signs of sustaining momentum beyond its opening weekend.
Day 4 BMS Sales Performance
On Day 4 (Monday, April 20), Bhooth Bangla sold approximately 126.77K tickets on BookMyShow. This places the film at the 10th position in the list of highest first Monday ticket sales for Bollywood films in the 2025–26 period.
In doing so, the film has surpassed Jaat, starring Sunny Deol, which previously held the 10th spot with 115K ticket sales.

Trend & Projections
After a strong opening weekend, the Monday hold indicates decent audience retention for the Akshay Kumar starrer. While a drop from Sunday numbers is expected, the film has managed to stay above the 120K mark, which is a positive trend for a weekday.
Going forward, the film’s performance through the mid-week period will be crucial. If Bhooth Bangla maintains stability in the range of 90K–110K daily ticket sales, it could aim to climb higher in the BMS rankings, especially if weekday drops remain controlled.
Conclusion
Bhooth Bangla has passed the Monday test on a steady note and entered the top 10 first Monday BMS sales chart. The film now needs to hold well through the weekdays to build a strong extended week total.
