The Anees Bazmee-directed film Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 garnered an overwhelmingly high response from audiences and critics alike in its release this past Friday, even topping international markets by Sunday. With an approximate gross of $2 million USD (Rs. 15.53 cr.) already within the first week, one cannot help but admire Bhushan Kumar – Murad Khetani’s latest collaboration – especially when considering the film’s heavy competition against other major titles set for release during much of June. U.S.A – 828,436 USD [Rs. 6.43 cr.] Canada – 510,227 USD [Rs. 3.96 cr.] U.K and Ireland – 237,099 USD [Rs. 1.84 cr.] Australia…
Ayushmann Khurrana’s Anek has shown a sluggish trend at the box office in its opening weekend. After collecting Rs 2.11 crore on Friday, the movie jumped to Rs. 2.30 crores on Saturday to take the two day total to Rs. 4.40 crores, but what followed was unexpected – a drastic fall in numbers during Sunday’s screenings. Early estimates say that it had collected between 1,950 and 2,150 rupees from audiences during its second release for an estimated final tally of 6,500 rupees overall for four days of screening; this falls short of crossing 15 thousand rupees mark which is considered…
Last week, Anees Bazmee-directed movie Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 starring Kiara Advani and Kartik Aaryan opened across theaters in India. The film had an impressive opening – exceeding the Rs 50 crores (or $7.8 million) benchmark on it’s first day! As the weekend came to an end, we saw that the movie was still holding steady, earning about 10 crores (or $1.5 million) more than what it made on Day 1. And now even though it’s only been one week since the release of this gem from Bhushan Kumar-Murad Khetani Productions Ltd., its gross earnings are nearing 100 crores (or $14…
The recent release of ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2’ starring Kartik Aaryan and Kiara Advani, pulled in an impressive Rs.14.11 crore on Day 1; but it was only getting started. Already breaking records after just two days, the film’s success continues to grow thanks to its strong opening numbers and positive critical reviews from audiences across India. As per advance reports, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 saw an occupancy rate of about 70% for the morning and early afternoons showings. Furthermore, trade predictions and booking rates suggested that this occupancy would increase to approximately 90% for evening and night showings; with mass dominated circuits…
The much-anticipated Bollywood movie Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 was finally released last week on Friday. Directed by Anees Bazmee and starring Kiara Advani, the film had been discussed for months before it came out. With an opening day collection of Rs. 14.11 cr and a very strong box office performance following it, it seems that the Bhushan Kumar – Murad Khetani produced flick will be one to remember. Already making over 100 crores within just eight days of its release, expectations are high for this blockbuster hit from India. In this Box Office Report, we compare the collections of Bhool Bhulaiyaa…
The Ajay Devgn-starring film Runway 34 was released some time ago now. However, despite the hype and promotion for this film, it has performed poorly so far – which is perhaps due to the number of films released around or before it. In its fourth week, Runway 34 has garnered an additional Rs. 74 lakhs for a total of Rs. 32.96 crore after four weeks out at the box office despite the film facing stiff competition from other recent releases – RRR and KGF 2- both maintaining strong performances days after their theatrical release date; going forward, even if it…
With every passing day, hopes of how well Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 will do have been growing in a significant way. Initially, many were curious if the film would even break opening records – but then people wanted to know if it could become an Indian cinema giant. Some wondered if this would be the most profitable collaboration for director Anees Bazmee and actor Kartik Aaryan; others wanted to know if Rs.150 crores lifetime earnings was feasible – but now people are asking if Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 has a chance of reaching an even higher milestone of Rs.175 crores lifetime earnings!…
This week, director Anees Bazmee released his new movie Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 starring Kartik Aaryan and Kiara Advani to an overwhelming reception. The movie premiered on about 3200 screens around the country (over 2700 domestically) which led it to make Rs. 50 crores during just one weekend- record breaking for Indian movies. Reviews from audiences and critics alike have been overwhelmingly positive so far with the majority of people booking tickets in advance before even seeing it, meaning that this film will be unstoppable in India because there’s not much stopping it. In just eight days since its release, Bhool…
The star-studded action drama Dhaakad, starring Kangana Ranaut that was released only a week ago, has met mediocre success at the Box Office despite heavy promotion before its release. The film did not find many viewers because it lacked the interest and engagement of people. As such, business for the movie remained low. Overseas, too, Dhaakad has not been doing well. With figures such as these from the United States – the country where Kangana Ranaut’s film debuted at – it became clear that success for her venture in foreign countries would not be met with any great reception either.…
The movie Jayeshbhai Jordaar, starring Ranveer Singh, which was released two weeks ago has been a disappointment. Even after beginning mildly well the first few days at the theaters it continued to draw an equally unimpressive audience in its second week of release too. Despite receiving glowing reviews from critics, Jayeshbhai Jordaar was unsuccessful in attracting viewers. Second week earnings amounted to only Rs. 64 lakhs- drawing a total of Rs. 15.59 crores after two weeks in theaters. This poor performance can be attributed to the failure of this Hindi language film to attract audiences in the single screens dominated…
