BHOOTH BANGLA had another solid weekend as it collected 7 crore nett and heads for a comfortable double digit week. The film has held up really well over the last few weeks considering the film dropped 45% on the first Monday. It did not look like the film could reach 150 crore nett at that time but now it will cross the coveted mark comfortably.

The film dropped under 50% over the last two weeks showing a good trend. The collections stand at 144 crore nett and the weekdays will show healthy numbers which should take it to around 148 crore nett by the end of the week. The flow of releases will start then but BHOOTH BANGLA will still hang around to finish at 150 crore nett plus.

The collections of BHOOTH BANGLA till date are as follows.
Week One - 78,84,00,000
Second Week - 37,85,00,000
Week Three - 20,63,00,000
Friday - 1,25,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 2,50,00,000 apprx
Sunday - 3,25,00,000 apprx
Fourth Weekend - 7,00,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 1,44,32,00,000 apprx
---------------------------------
BHOOTH BANGLA was released a few weeks ago and has done well and its basically the Delhi/UP market which has taken it to HIT status. When the film was released, it was not doing too well here, but it has sustained superbly over the last few weeks. It did not look like the film could cross the business of JOLLY LLB 3 initially but now after five weeks, it is on course to do so.

BHOOTH BANGLA has picked up almost 35 crore nett in Delhi/UP so far which is roughly the business of JOLLY LLB 3 in the circuit and there is still more to come. The films had a big difference in the first week as JOLLY LLB 3 did 21.27 crore nett while BHOOTH BANGLA was 17.69 crore nett and that was including the paid previews.

BHOOTH BANGLA will now do around 37-38 crore nett in the circuit which is going to be more than double the first week collections. This will not be happening in any other circuit or even at an all India level.

The business of Bhooth Bangla and JOLLY LLB 3 in Delhi/UP is as follows.
