Due to this, makers try to book this festive release date in advance for their movies. To enjoy the benefit of long festivities, we have often seen multiple films arriving during the same period, resulting in big clashes. One such high-voltage clash occurred in 2024, when <a href=\"https:\/\/www.koimoi.com\/box-office-filmometer\/ajay-devgns-filmometer-box-office-worth\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Ajay Devgn<\/a>\u2018s Singham Again collided with another major release, Kartik Aaryan\u2019s Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3. Since it\u2019s been almost a year now, let\u2019s revisit this mega battle!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Last year, on November 1, 2024, we witnessed a drama that would have been easily avoided. As we all know, both Singham and Bhool Bhulaiyaa are big brands of Bollywood. Over the years, they have built their audience and enjoy a dedicated fan base. With a box office glory in the past, the threequels of both franchises were potential goldmines for the industry, but due to a clash, the business of both films was impacted.<\/p>\n<p>Singham Again failed to roar at the Indian box office<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">More than Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, it was a loss for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.koimoi.com\/bollywood-movies\/movie-reviews\/singham-again-movie-review-ajay-devgn-starrer-is-all-chaos-no-show-making-even-salman-khans-chulbul-think-swagat-kyu-kiya-hamara\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Singham Again<\/a>. Backed by a massive budget of 340 crores, the magnum opus was a potential 500 crore net grosser. Considering the brand value of Singham and the return of the Ajay Devgn-Rohit Shetty duo, expectations were sky-high. In a solo release, it would have fetched epic numbers, but unfortunately, it got dented by a clash.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">While it opened well with 43.7 crores, it eventually settled for a lifetime collection of 270.6 crore net at the Indian box office, thus turning out to be a losing affair. Compared to the budget of 340 crores, it suffered a deficit of 69.4 crores. It was a major blow to Ajay Devgn, as no one ever thought that the brand Singham would go wrong.<\/p>\n<p>Singham Again\u2019s box office summary:<\/p>\n<p>Budget \u2013 340 crores<br \/>\nIndia net collection \u2013 270.6 crores<br \/>\nDeficit \u2013 69.4 crores<br \/>\nVerdict \u2013 Losing<\/p>\n<p>Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 crushed Ajay Devgn\u2019s magnum opus and won the Diwali battle!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Speaking about the other competitor, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.koimoi.com\/bollywood-movies\/movie-reviews\/bhool-bhulaiyaa-3-movie-review-kartik-aaryan-team-deliver-a-perfect-diwali-bonanza-for-families\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3<\/a> also suffered to an extent, but it still managed to pull off a strong collection, considering its budget and expectations. Made on a budget of 150 crores, it raked in a solid 281.56 crore net at the Indian box office, enjoying a return on investment (ROI) of 131.56 crores, which equals 87.7% returns. It secured a plus affair.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In the end, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 emerged victorious in a high-voltage clash, leaving Ajay Devgn with no other option than to watch his potential blockbuster sink like a titanic.<\/p>\n<p>Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3\u2019s box office summary:<\/p>\n<p>Budget \u2013 150 crores<br \/>\nIndia net collection \u2013 281.56 crores<br \/>\nROI \u2013 131.56 crores<br \/>\nROI% \u2013 87.7%<br \/>\nVerdict \u2013 Plus<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Stay tuned to Koimoi for more <a href=\"https:\/\/www.koimoi.com\/category\/box-office\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">box office updates<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p>Must Read:<a href=\"https:\/\/www.koimoi.com\/box-office\/kantara-chapter-1-hindi-box-office-day-16-hunts-down-sitaare-zameen-par-to-become-7th-highest-grossing-hindi-film-of-2025\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"> Kantara: Chapter 1 Hindi Box Office Day 16: Hunts Down Sitaare Zameen Par To Become 7th Highest-Grossing Hindi Film Of 2025!<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Follow Us: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/koimoidotcom\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Facebook<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/koimoi\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Instagram<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Koimoi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Twitter<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/Koimoi4Bollywood\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">YouTube<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/news.google.com\/s\/CBIwo7yAqUE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Google News<\/a><\/p>\n<p>                                            <script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Revisiting Singham Again vs Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 Diwali Clash At Box Office (Photo Credit \u2013 Instagram\/Prime Video) Diwali&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":222829,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[49,48,75,337],"class_list":["post-222828","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-movies","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-entertainment","tag-movies"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/222828","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=222828"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/222828\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/222829"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=222828"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=222828"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=222828"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
