Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 has been proving to be one of the year’s best movies thus far. Asking for feedback from various sources, all responses indicate a resounding approval for this film as people cannot seem to stop talking about it. On its first day at theaters, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 made Rs. 14.11 crores – beating even its prequel’s records – and then gained an additional Rs 18.34 crores on Saturday.
According to predictions from these figures alone, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 will become an unprecedented success over the weekend – which seems counterintuitive given how recent American blockbusters haven’t fared well domestically within the same time frame (the science fiction adventure Geostorm recently took in only $13 million during its first weekend).
The film’s growth so far points to the fact that it doesn’t matter if the movie is coming from Bollywood, Hollywood, or anywhere else – It only matters whether the movie entertains people. And since this Kartik Aaryan-starrer has done just that, audiences have responded well and are giving nods of approval. This can be seen in his previous success as well where he always provided some form of entertainment for family audiences watching him on the big screen.
So far, the movie has collected around Rs. 32.46 crore rupees and it is now a given that they will break over Rs. 50 crore rupees by this Friday after the opening weekend finishes up. This means Anees Bazmee will be giving us a success story for Bollywood and we have to wait until Monday begins to see if we can do even better than what we had hoped for at first glance.
