Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 is expected to become a hit, though sustaining high daily collections post-Diwali may be challenging. Monday’s box office performance will be crucial in confirming the film’s status. Despite higher earnings, Singham Again needs a strong hold on Monday to maintain its lead and cover more ground in the upcoming weeks.
Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 is headlined by Kartik Aaryan, Vidya Balan, Madhuri Dixit Nene and Triptych Winter. It’s a horror-comedy. It is set in Kolkata, West Bengal. The film was officially announced in March 2023.
On the other hand, Singham Again, a cop drama, features Ajay Devgn, Akshay Kumar, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Deepika Padukone, Arjun Kapoor, Tiger Shroff, Jackie Shroff and Ranveer Singh. Salman Khan has a special cameo in the film, which is directed by Rohit Shetty.
