Just when most theatrical runs begin to fade, Akshay Kumar’s Bhooth Bangla has found another burst of energy. The horror comedy delivered a notable sixth-weekend hold at the Indian box office, adding Rs 1.25 crore nett on its fifth Saturday, a sharp 48 per cent jump from Friday, and taking its total to Rs 175.35 crore nett. For a film this deep into its run, that kind of movement signals more than survival. It signals a crowd-pleaser that is still drawing paying audiences.
Fifth Saturday Jump Keeps The Run Lively
The latest movement has given Bhooth Bangla fresh momentum at a stage when many releases are already running out of steam. The film is now heading to close the weekend at around Rs 177.50 crore nett, with an estimated Rs 3.50 crore expected across the frame. That sustained pull, especially with a 48 per cent jump on Saturday, points to steady walk-ins and strong weekend recall.
Crossing Rs 175 crore nett is a significant marker in the film’s run because it has come through gradual accumulation rather than a single front-loaded surge. With the Rs 179 crore mark now in sight by the end of the week, Bhooth Bangla has a clear path toward finishing around Rs 180 crore nett in India.

Family Appeal Has Powered Bhooth Bangla’s Long Run
Bhooth Bangla has benefited from the kind of audience support that often keeps horror comedies alive beyond their opening phase. The genre mix of scares and broad humour has clearly worked in its favour, helping the film stay active over multiple weekends rather than relying only on an opening burst. That is what makes this hold commercially significant for Akshay Kumar, whose recent box office journey has placed extra focus on films that can maintain theatrical traction.
Its current total already places the film in a strong commercial bracket, and the remaining stretch of its run now appears set to be about how closely it can push toward that Rs 180 crore nett finish.
What Bhooth Bangla Means For Akshay Kumar’s Lineup
For Akshay Kumar, Bhooth Bangla adds a much-needed durable theatrical performer to his recent filmography. The actor was seen in Sarfira in 2024 and Khel Khel Mein in 2024, both of which arrived in a highly competitive market. He was also part of Sky Force in 2025, extending a phase where his lineup has moved across drama, comedy and action.
Looking ahead, one of Akshay Kumar’s confirmed upcoming theatrical releases is Jolly LLB 3, which keeps him in a mainstream commercial space that continues to suit his star image. Against that backdrop, the run of Bhooth Bangla is especially meaningful because it shows that with the right genre hook and sustained audience support, the actor can still deliver a strong, long-legged box office performance.
