Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 beats Kalki 2898 AD; becomes the second fastest Rs. 200 crore grosser of 2024

Kartik Aaryan's latest venture, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, is creating waves at the box office, shattering records and setting new milestones. This third instalment in the Bhool Bhulaiyaa franchise has successfully captured the audience’s attention with its unique blend of horror and comedy, firmly establishing Kartik as a box-office force. Within just 10 days of release, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 has soared past the Rs. 200 crore mark, outperforming Prabhas’s high-profile project, Kalki 2898 AD, to become the second fastest film of 2024 to reach this milestone. The box office race in 2024 has been fierce, with several big releases competing to capture the audience’s attention. The excitement around Stree 2, featuring Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor, has set a high benchmark, as it crossed the Rs. 200 crore mark in an astonishing 4 days, making it the fastest grosser of the year so far. Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, however, has managed to carve out its own record as the second fastest, overtaking Kalki 2898 AD in a remarkable 10 days. The success of Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 can be attributed to several factors. First, Kartik Aaryan’s portrayal of his quirky and charismatic character has resonated with audiences, bringing both humour and thrill to the role. The film also benefits from the franchise’s loyal fan base, who have been eagerly awaiting this sequel. Strong word-of-mouth and favourable reviews praising Kartik’s performance, along with the engaging storyline, have played a significant role in driving repeat footfalls at theatres nationwide. Kalki 2898 AD, starring Prabhas, has drawn massive anticipation and fanfare due to its ambitious storyline and high production value. The film reached Rs. 200 crore in 11 days, a commendable feat for any major release. However, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 outpaced it, crossing the Rs. 200 crore mark a day earlier. This achievement not only underscores Kartik Aaryan’s growing star power but also reflects the wide-reaching appeal of the horror-comedy genre among Indian audiences. With Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 now holding its place as the second fastest Rs. 200 crore grosser of the year, it will be interesting to watch how other upcoming releases fare and whether Kartik’s recent box office triumph will set new benchmarks for success in Bollywood.
