Bhooth Bangla, a horror-comedy film featuring Akshay Kumar and directed by Priyadarshan, has achieved a significant milestone by crossing ₹200 crore in worldwide box office collections within just 13 days of its release on April 17, 2026. The film had a strong debut, earning ₹58 crore in its first weekend and reaching ₹100 crore by its second Saturday. Despite a decline in daily earnings, it managed to recover briefly, contributing to its current domestic total of ₹124.50 crore net (approximately ₹147.90 crore gross). Internationally, the film has grossed around $5.6 million, although its daily earnings have fallen below $80,000. Bhooth Bangla is now the third-highest-grossing Hindi film of the year and has outperformed notable horror-comedies like Thamma and Stree. As it aims to surpass the lifetime collections of Prabhas’ The RajaSaab (₹208 crore), its future performance will depend on its hold during the upcoming third weekend. The film also features a talented cast including Tabu, Wamiqa Gabbi, Paresh Rawal, Rajpal Yadav, and Mithila Palkar.
