Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 mints Rs 171.17 crore, shows Kartik Aaryan's growing might as star

Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2, starring Kartik Aaryan, Tabu, Kiara Advani and Rajpal Yadav, has emerged as a box office winner, raking in Rs 171.17 crore in India so far. The film, which released on May 20, collected Rs 3.45 crore on its 24th day bailing Bollywood out of troubled waters as very few Hindi films have managed to put up good numbers on the box office in recent times except for the runaway success of The Kashmir Files.

Film trade analyst Taran Adarsh on Monday shared the Kartik Aaryan-starrer film’s collection in his tweet, “#BhoolBhulaiyaa2 continues to surprise (the industry) and silence (the detractors) with its super run, week after week… The excellent trending in Weekend 4 says it all… (Week 4) Fri 1.56 cr, Sat 3.01 cr, Sun 3.45 cr. Total: ? 171.17 cr. #India biz.” But, calling the film’s success a surprise won’t be right as the independent trade analyst Sumit Kadel furnishes different reasons behind the film’s phenomenal success. Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 according to him “is a well made horror-comedy”.—IANS
