- The movie earned big on its first Tuesday
- Akshay Kumar hits a new milestone
- The spooky-funny vibe is winning hearts
We just saw the latest box office numbers for Akshay Kumar’s new film, Bhooth Bangla. Wow. It is doing much better than people expected! The movie just crossed the 70-crore mark on its very first Tuesday. That is a huge deal for any film these days.
Usually, big movies start to lose speed by the middle of the week. Not this one. It stayed strong and kept the momentum going. We think the visual style is a big reason why people are showing up. The movie has a very specific neon-spooky aesthetic. It looks like a fun, creepy carnival on screen.
The colors are bright but the shadows are dark. It creates a vibe that is both scary and silly. Sucheta and I love how the film looks. It doesn’t feel like a boring, dusty old horror movie. It feels fresh and full of energy.
While Akshay is busy counting his crores, other stars are also making headlines. Virat Kohli’s ex-girlfriend finally spoke out about being dragged into a recent controversy. She reminded everyone it has been 12 years since they were a thing! We also saw that Vijay gave a very powerful speech at his TVK rally in Chennai. He is definitely taking his new role seriously.
On the business side of things, Liz Parker just launched her own company called Parker Projects. It’s a busy week for everyone! But for now, the spotlight is firmly on Akshay and his ghosts.
Our Take
We are so happy to see Akshay Kumar back in his element. He is great at comedy. When you add a little bit of horror to the mix, it just works. The 70-crore mark is just the beginning. If the movie keeps this same energy, it might become one of the biggest hits of the year. Go watch it if you want a good laugh and a few jumps!
