- What’s Inside:
- Bhooth Bangla’s slow start
- A big drop on Monday
- What this means for the movie
We just saw the latest numbers for ‘Bhooth Bangla’, and honestly, it’s a bit of a tough watch. The movie, starring Akshay Kumar, had a pretty rough day 4 at the box office, especially on its first Monday.
Imagine this: the footfalls, meaning the number of people actually going to the theaters, dropped by a huge 58%. That’s like half the people suddenly deciding not to go anymore. The film is struggling to even cross 2 crore rupees. Not the kind of comeback story we were hoping for.
The vibe around the film’s performance feels a little muted, almost like the vibrant colors you’d expect from a big Bollywood flick are fading. It’s a sharp contrast to the buzz some other movies are generating, like Ayushmann Khurrana’s ‘Pati Patni Aur Woh Do’ teaser which looks like it has a fun, colorful aesthetic.
Our Take
Look, every movie has its ups and downs. We’re all rooting for good stories and entertaining films. It’s a bummer when a big release doesn’t connect with audiences as expected. We’ll be watching to see if ‘Bhooth Bangla’ can find its footing or if this trend continues.
