‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3’ began its journey with a powerful opening weekend. As per early estimates, the film collected Rs 9.5 crore on Thursday, marking its seventh day in theaters. This consistent performance, with only an 11% drop from Wednesday’s earnings, pushed the film’s lifetime net collections in India to Rs 158.25 crore, setting a new personal best for Kartik Aaryan by surpassing the Rs 150-crore mark in just a week. With the momentum sustained, industry analysts expect the movie to cross Rs 200 crore in the upcoming days.

The third installment of this hit franchise continues to attract viewers, exceeding the performance of movies with longer theatrical runs, proving its significant appeal.
This installment marks an exciting continuation of the beloved ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa’ franchise, which first launched in 2007 with Akshay Kumar and Vidya Balan. Seventeen years later, Vidya Balan returns to her iconic role as Manjulika, joined by new addition Madhuri Dixit and fresh talent Triptii Dimri. Fans were thrilled to see Vidya reprise her role, while Madhuri’s entry added another layer of excitement to the plot.
Directed by Anees Bazmee, ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3’ brings back the mystery and thrill of the haunted mansion, blending spine-chilling horror with doses of humor.
