Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 is a bumper hit. The Kartik Aaryan, Kiara Advani and Tabu starrer ransacked ₹56.01 crore nett in its first weekend at the box office, finally brining an ailing Bollywood back on track and giving the entire industry plenty of reason to smile. Reaching a ₹50 crore+ weekend at a time when most most Bollywood movies are folding under ₹30 crore in their lifetime run is nothing short of remarkable. It also catapulted Director Anees Bazmee into an exclusive club of Bollywood Directors who’ve delivered clean hits across more than 2 decades. However, the crucial Monday test was still awaited to see how big a hit Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 could end up being.

The Kartik Aaryan and Kiara Advani starrer, directed by Anees Bazmee, which also sees Tabu, Rajpal Yadav, Sanjay Mishra and Ashwini Kalsekar in key supporting roles, has hit double digits on a Monday, which bigger Bollywood films couldn't on during their opening weekend, exhibiting far more than a strong hold, which augurs excellently for it in the long run. The sequel to 2007's hit Bhool Bhulaiyaa has raked up ₹10.75 crore nett on its first Monday to take its 4-day box office collection to a whopping ₹76.32 crore nett.

Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 gives Bollywood reason to smile after ages
However, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 has failed to beat The Kashmir Files (₹18 crore nett) and Gangubai Kathiawadi (₹10.01 crore nett) on its fifth day, coming in at third place for the highest day 5 collection of 2022 in the Hindi market. It's worth noting though that Gangubai's fifth day fell on Mahashivratri holiday.
