Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 continues its dream run; Kartik Aaryan's biggest hit mints ₹154.82 cr so far

Toplined by Kartik Aaryan, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 (2022) is having a dream run at the domestic box office in India. Helmed by Anees Bazmee, the horror-comedy film hit cinemas on May 20 and has been earning steadily ever since. The film has now crossed the much-coveted ₹150 mark in India as it raked in ₹154.82 crores till Sunday, June 5.

Sharing the latest earnings of the film on his Twitter handle, noted film critic and trade analyst Taran Adarsh wrote, “Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 continues to dazzle, unaffected by multiple releases week after week... Growth on third Sat and Sun remarkable... Mass circuits in full form... Heading towards ₹175 cr... [Week 3] Fri2.81 cr, Sat 4.55 cr, Sun 5.71 cr. Total: ₹ 154.82 cr. India biz.”


Not just in India, but the film has been doing thunderous business overseas also. If reports are to be believed, the horror-comedy has gone past the ₹200-crore mark with its worldwide collection. The film is holding it really well in theatres despite new releases such as Samrat Prithviraj, Major, and Vikram.

In a media statement, the makers of the film said, "Holding steady in theatres despite new releases, this horror-comedy continues to score big as it collects ₹5.71 on day 17 and takes the collection to ₹154.82 cr."

Also starring Kiara Advani and Tabu in significant roles, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 is a sequel to Akshay Kumar, Vidya Balan, and Shiney Ahuja’s 2007 hit Bhool Bhulaiyaa. The sequel has turned out to be a much bigger hit than its predecessor.

While Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 is busy smashing one box office record after another, Kartik Aaryan over the weekend informed his fans that he has contracted Covid-19. “Everything was so good, but Covid could not be kept at bay,” he shared as a caption of the post.

From Cannes to Krypton: Terence Stamp’s 10 career milestones

Highlights

  • Oscar-nominated debut in Billy Budd (1962)

  • Career revival in The Hit (1984)
  • Missed iconic roles like James Bond and Alfie

Terence Stamp never played life safely. He wasn’t the sort of actor who coasted on charm or looks, though he had both in abundance. Instead, he kept disappearing and reappearing, reinventing himself each time, with roles that felt daring, unsettling, or quietly revolutionary. He could have been a matinée idol forever, but that would’ve been boring. Stamp preferred to be unpredictable.
