Bhooth Bangla worldwide box office collection day 2: The first Saturday has seen a windfall for Akshay Kumar<\/a> and Priyadarshan<\/a>\u2019s Bhooth Bangla. The film built on its decent start, registering a huge jump in collections and closing day 2 on a rather promising note. If the first Sunday emulates the Saturday, the horror-comedy may be on course for a great run at the ticket window.<\/p>\n

Bhooth Bangla released on April 17 with paid previews the night before. The Akshay Kumar-starrer had a promising time at the paid previews, earning \u20b93.50 crore net in India. On its release day, buoyed by positive reviews, the film earned \u20b912.25 crore net. On Saturday, Bhooth Bangla earned \u20b919 crore net, seeing a strong 55% jump from day 1. This takes the film\u2019s domestic haul after two days to \u20b935 crore net ( \u20b942 crore gross). On its opening day, the film had extremely low footfall in the morning shows, but good word of mouth saw that number jump by the night shows. On Saturday, Bhooth Bangla made amends by registering decent occupancy across shows.<\/p>\n

Bhooth Bangla recovered overseas, too. After a middling start in paid previews and opening day, it earned $1 million in the international territories on day 2. This takes its worldwide gross to an extremely strong \u20b960 crore in two days. The film should cross the \u20b9100-crore mark in the opening weekend itself.<\/p>\n

Bhooth Bangla beats Dacoit, The Kerala Story 2<\/p>\n

With a worldwide gross of \u20b960 crore, Bhooth Bangla has quickly become the 5th-highest-grossing Hindi film of the year, leapfrogging past The Kerala Story 2 ( \u20b948 crore) and the Telugu-Hindi bilingual, Dacoit <\/a>( \u20b950 crore). It should reach the third spot by Sunday, overtaking O\u2019Romeo and Mardaani 3, as well.<\/p>\n
