'Bhooth Bangla' has officially entered the Rs. 100 crore India net club, achieving the milestone in emphatic style. On Day 10, Sunday, April 27, 2026, the horror-comedy reunion of Akshay Kumar and Priyadarshan continues to draw audiences. The worldwide gross stands at a robust Rs. 161.60 crore after Day 9's extraordinary 87% surge, which saw the film collect Rs. 10.75 crore in a single day and cross the domestic century mark. The horror comedy achieved this amid stiff competition from 'Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge', still running in its sixth week, and the peak IPL 2026 season.
'Bhooth Bangla's Rs. 100 crore India net milestone is more than just a box office number. After a sustained run of commercial disappointments, it represents the clearest evidence yet of Akshay Kumar's audience connection, particularly when operating within the creative comfort zone of the Priyadarshan partnership. The film marks their first collaboration in 16 years, with their last outing together being 'De Dana Dan' (2009). The pair previously delivered some of Bollywood's most beloved comedies like 'Hera Pheri' (2000), 'Garam Masala' (2005), 'Bhagam Bhag' (2006), and 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa' (2007).
