Akshay Kumar's Top 5 Openers In Post-Pandemic Era: Bhooth Bangla Eyes Top Three

BY SACNILK

Mumbai, April 17 - Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar's Bhooth Bangla is looking at a good opening at the domestic box office amid growing interest among audiences. After the better-than-expected paid previews of 3.50+ crores net, the horror comedy is seeing a good turnaround on its first full-fledged release day. Bhooth Bangla Eyes 15 Crore Net Opening (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Directed by Priyadarshan, the horror-comedy is looking to score around 12 crores net on its pure opening day, which is a good result. Akshay's last film, Jolly LLB 3, opened to 12.50 crores net, but that was a franchise movie, and here, Bhooth Bangla is the original title, and that makes the opening look even better on paper. Including the paid previews, the film should be able to post 15+ crores net opening day, and with initial word of mouth seems to be positive, this sets the movie up for a good first weekend at the domestic box office. Jolly LLB 3 delivered 53.50 crores net opening weekend, and the latest horror comedy will be aiming to clock around it. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Bhooth Bangla Eyes Top 3 Opening Day For Akshay Kumar In Post Covid-Era In the post-pandemic era, it has been a mixed bag for Akshay Kumar when it comes to the box office results. Only two films of the actor have opened above 20 crores net in the form of Sooryavanshi and Housefull 5. While Bhooth Bangla is not going to be open in the 20 crore range, it will surely be aiming for the top 3 spot among the biggest openers of Akshay in recent times.

Bhooth Bangla Paid Previews Box Office: Akshay Kumar Starrer Opens Better Than Expected With 3.50 Crore Net

BY SACNILK

Mumbai, April 16 - Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar-fronted much-awaited horror-comedy Bhooth Bangla has kicked off its box office journey on a promising note. The film recorded an impressive performance in its paid preview shows, surpassing early expectations and setting a positive tone ahead of its full-fledged release. Bhooth Bangla Opens To 3.50 Crore Net In Paid Previews (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) According to early estimates, Priyadarshan's directorial has collected approximately 3.50-3.75 crore net from its paid previews across India. The trade was anticipating 2.50-3 crore net in previews, but the film has clearly surpassed the expectations due to positive reception buzz and early critics' reactions. This figure is considered good for a non-holiday release, especially in the horror-comedy genre, which typically relies heavily on word-of-mouth and audience reception. The film's advance momentum was visible in key urban centres, with solid response in spot bookings which normally don't happen in previews. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The good start at the box office shows that the movie has been able to make a positive impact, and that should help it going forward. The combination of horror elements with comedy, something Akshay Kumar has successfully explored in past ventures, appears to have intrigued audiences, contributing to the encouraging initial turnout. Solid Opening Day On The Cards The response to paid previews suggests that Bhooth Bangla will be going into the full-fledged opening day with a lot more buzz and awareness. Initially, it looked like the movie would open in Jolly LLB 3's opening range (12.50 crores), but now, a 15+ crore net opening day, including previews, is well within reach, which is a healthy sign. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Depending on the spot, bookings remain good, and the opening of Bhooth Bangla may go further, which needs to be seen. If the general audience reception aligns with the critics' reviews, Bhooth Bangla could be in for a very good run at the box office.

Bhooth Bangla Opening Day Box Office Expectations: Akshay Kumar Starrer Heads To Open On Par With Jolly LLB 3

BY SACNILK

Mumbai, April 16 - One of the most iconic actor-director combos of Akshay Kumar and Priyadarshan reunite after 16 years for the horror-comedy Bhooth Bangla, which begins its theatrical rollout with paid previews on April 16 from 9 PM, before the full-fledged release on April 17. The duo of Akshay and Priyadarshan has delivered some of the cult comedies, and the expectations are high for Bhooth Bangla. Trade is positive about the film's box office outcome, while being cautious about not overestimating the film's box office potential. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The advance booking of Bhooth Bangla opened 4 days before the release. While there was no initial rush in booking tickets, the pre-sales for the film are seeing some momentum going into the last day before the full-fledged release. As of 3 PM on April 16, the film has grossed 5.50+ crores (with block seats) for the opening day, including around 2 crores from the premiere alone. The pre-sales trend of Bhooth Bangla, although it is not strong to the level of expectations, is decent enough to keep the film on track for a double-digit start. As per trade estimates and booking trends, the film is heading towards opening in the range of Akshay's last film, Jolly LLB 3. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The courtroom comedy, which was released last year, opened to 12.50 crores net from 6+ crore gross pre-sales. Bhooth Bangla will be finishing with 7+ crore gross in advance sales, including the premiere. Plus, the horror-comedy genre is an advantage for Priyadarshan's directorial, which is expected to take the opening of 12-15 crores net, including paid previews. Initially, trade was anticipating 20 crore net start, but the mixed reception to its trailer and songs affected the pre-release buzz. However, on a positive side, the opening of 12-15 crores net will be a decent result compared to what it might have been had it been released a week earlier, as initially planned. The makers took a wise decision to move the release by a week to keep enough gap with Dhurandhar 2, which has been dominating the box office since its release on March 19.

The film's theatrical runtime has officially been revealed, which suggests it will be one of Akshay's longest films. After much anticipation, Bhooth Bangla has been granted a UA 16+ certificate by the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). The CBFC has asked for a few changes, including a couple of obscene words, which were replaced. The makers were also reportedly asked to include disclaimers for the religious and superstitious references in the film. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Along with the certification, the film's final runtime has been confirmed at 2 hours and 45 minutes (165 minutes). Earlier reports hinted at a longer duration, but the makers have opted for a slightly trimmed version to ensure a tighter and more engaging narrative. Despite the edit, the runtime still suggests a packed entertainer with ample room for both humour and horror-driven sequences. Directed by Priyadarshan, Bhooth Bangla marks a much-awaited reunion between the filmmaker and Akshay Kumar, a duo known for delivering several iconic comedy films over the years.

From Bhool Bhulaiyaa To Roohi: Five Bollywood Horror Comedies to Watch Before Akshay Kumar's Bhooth Bangla

BY SACNILK

Mumbai, April 9 - After years, Akshay Kumar is set to return to the horror-comedy space with director Priyadarshan's Bhooth Bangla. This genre once gave the actor one of his most iconic roles in Bhool Bhulaiyaa. Bhooth Bangla is already generating strong buzz, largely because it promises a blend of nostalgia and a fresh take on the genre. Akshay Kumar's strength has always been his effortless comic timing, especially in films that balance humour with tension. With Bhooth Bangla, fans are hoping to see him revisit that space—something reminiscent of his performance as the eccentric yet sharp psychiatrist in Bhool Bhulaiyaa, but with a new twist. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Bollywood has experimented with spooky humour over the years, delivering films that blend scares with laughter in unique ways. Before stepping into Akshay's upcoming entertainer, scheduled for April 17 release, here are five original (first film) horror comedies that perfectly set the mood. 1. Bhool Bhulaiyaa – The Cult Classic (2007) (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Directed by Priyadarshan, Bhool Bhulaiyaa remains one of Bollywood's finest horror comedies. With Akshay Kumar delivering an iconic performance as the eccentric Dr Aditya, the film smartly balances psychological horror with humour. Its gripping narrative, memorable music, and twist-filled climax make it a must-watch before Bhooth Bangla. 2. Stree – Horror With a Message (2018) (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Featuring Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor, Stree redefined the genre in modern Bollywood. Set in a small town haunted by a mysterious spirit, the film cleverly mixes folklore with social commentary. Its sharp writing and perfectly timed humour make it one of the most loved horror comedies in recent years. 3. Phone Bhoot – A Quirky, Gen-Z Spin (2022) (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Starring Katrina Kaif alongside Ishaan Khatter and Siddhant Chaturvedi, Phone Bhoot brings a fresh, meta take on horror comedy. Packed with pop-culture references and self-aware humour, the film leans more toward laughs while still embracing its supernatural core. 4. Bhoot Police – Ghost Hunting Meets Comedy (2021) (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) With Saif Ali Khan and Arjun Kapoor playing ghost hunters, Bhoot Police offers a fun, adventurous take on the genre. The film blends supernatural elements with a buddy-comedy dynamic, making it an easy and entertaining watch for fans of light-hearted horror. 5. Roohi – A Supernatural Love Triangle (2021) (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Led by Janhvi Kapoor, Rajkummar Rao, and Varun Sharma, Roohi explores a unique concept involving a bride possessed by a spirit. While rooted in horror, the film leans heavily into comedy, delivering several laugh-out-loud moments alongside its eerie premise. It was originally part of the Maddock Horror Comedy Universe, but the makers later dropped it from MHCU. From the psychological brilliance of Bhool Bhulaiyaa to the quirky chaos of Phone Bhoot, these films showcase the versatility of Bollywood's horror-comedy genre. Each offers a distinct flavour, be it satire, folklore, or pure slapstick, making them the perfect watchlist before Bhooth Bangla hits the screens.

Is Ranveer Singh's Pralay An Adaptation of Blindness? Hanshal Mehta Clears The Air

BY SACNILK

Mumbai, April 4 - After two back-to-back all-time blockbusters in the form of Dhurandhar and Dhurandhar 2, the high-flying Ranveer Singh is gearing up to start his next film, titled Pralay. The actor is teaming up with Jai Mehta in his feature film directorial debut. Pralay is said to be a post-apocalyptic thriller, which is one of its kind in Indian cinema. However, over the last few weeks, there have been rumours that Pralay is an adaptation of José Saramago's 1995 novel, Blindness. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Amid the growing speculation, filmmaker Hanshal Mehta, who is the father of Jai, has dismissed the rumours and said that it is an original story that was developed by Jai with his co-writer Vishal Kapoor. Hanshal Mehta said that a novel like Blindness is not easily adapted to film. The senior filmmaker said that he had seen the 2008 film adaptation of Blindness (Julianne Moore Mark Ruffalo) and said that it wasn't a great one. In Blindness, the story is centred around a mysterious epidemic that causes widespread societal collapse. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Meanwhile, Pralay is currently in the deep pre-production and is expected to go on floors by mid-2026. Malayalam actress Kalyani Priyadarshan plays the female lead in the film, which involves a lot of VFX work. The film will be produced by Mehta's True Story Films in association with Ranveer's Ma Kasam Films. Stay tuned...

BY SACNILK

Mumbai, April 2 - In a major development, the makers have officially announced a revised release plan for her upcoming horror-comedy Bhooth Bangla, starring Akshay Kumar.
