Akshay Kumar's horror-comedy Bhooth Bangla has seen a mild revival in its box office earnings, taking its worldwide gross to ₹118 crore. The film, directed by Priyadarshan, has beaten the lifetime earnings of Bhediya and Shahid Kapoor's O Romeo.
After a promising opening weekend, Bhooth Bangla saw a dip in earnings on Monday, but on Tuesday, the film saw a boost in collections, unusual for a weekday. This has raised hopes for a healthier lifetime run for the film.
The film has made ₹72.75 crore net in India after five days and has exceeded $3 million in overseas earnings. Provided it maintains its momentum, it should cross the ₹150 crore mark by the second weekend.
