Earlier on Sunday, film trade analyst Taran Adarsh had already predicted the opening weekend figures of Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 to be Rs 55 crore as he had shared the collections of the first two days on his Twitter account. Along with it, he had also written that the film has a strong chance of crossing Rs 100 crore at the box office.
"#BhoolBhulaiyaa2 hits the ball out of the park on Day 2... Biz jumps across #India... Wins over youngistaan *and* families, metros *and* mass pockets... Eyes ₹ 55 cr [+/-] weekend, strong chance of going past ₹100 cr... Fri 14.11 cr, Sat 18.34 cr. Total: ₹ 32.45 cr. #India biz", read his tweet.
With the recent failures of Hindi films like Runway 34, Heropanti 2, and Jayeshbhai Jordaar at the box office, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 has been said to revive the Bollywood industry. It has also emerged as Kartik Aaryan's biggest opener beating the opening day collections of Love Aaj Kal.
