The race between Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 and Singham Again for the ₹200-crore mark has turned into one of the year’s closest box office battles. With both films appealing to distinctly different audiences, they’re each maintaining strong momentum.
Kartik Aaryan’s Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, a horror-comedy, is showing remarkable staying power. With day nine collections adding an estimated ₹15.5 crore, it now stands at ₹183 crore in total. Just ₹2 crore shy of Aaryan’s lifetime best with Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2, the film seems poised for a strong second weekend push toward ₹200 crore, backed by steady audience interest despite mixed reviews.
Ajay Devgn’s Singham Again, however, isn’t far behind and remains a box office juggernaut. Opening with a thunderous ₹43.5 crore on its first day, the cop drama has earned around ₹11.5 crore on day nine, taking its domestic total to ₹192.5 crore. Just ₹7.5 crore away from the 200-crore club, the film has sustained high audience attendance on weekends, driven by Devgn’s iconic action scenes and loyal fan base.
The appeal of both films—the horror-comedy genre of Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 versus the action-packed intensity of Singham Again—is attracting massive crowds. The final verdict on which will hit ₹200 crore first will likely play out over the next few days, with both films set to make a memorable impact in what may be one of the most exciting box office face-offs of the year.
