A fresh Monday at the box office has brought contrasting fortunes for two major Bollywood releases. While Akshay Kumar's Bhooth Bangla continues to enjoy a strong theatrical run, Ranveer Singh's Dhurandhar: The Revenge has witnessed a noticeable slowdown on its 40th day.
On its 11th day, Bhooth Bangla collected Rs 3.5 crore, marking a sharp 70.8% drop from Sunday's impressive Rs 12.50 crore. Despite the fall, the film maintained a solid presence across cinemas. it recorded the collection from 8,755 shows nationwide.
The horror-comedy has now pushed its India net total to Rs 117.05 crore, while the India gross stands at Rs 139.25 crore.
Internationally, the film added Rs 1.50 crore on Day 11, taking its overseas total to Rs 49.50 crore. This brings the global gross to Rs 188.75 crore, reinforcing its strong worldwide appeal.
The film had already crossed the prestigious Rs 100 crore mark in India, with a week 1 collection of Rs 84.40 crore, marking one of Akshay Kumar’s most significant theatrical comebacks in recent years.
Dhurandhar: The Revenge enetered its 40th day with a much steeper decline. The film collected just Rs 1.05 crore, reflecting a 69.1% drop from Sunday's Rs 3.40 crore.
The collections came from 2,808 shows, pushing its India net total to Rs 1,131.64 crore. The India gross now stands at Rs 1,354.52 crore, marking an extraordinary long-run performance despite the current slowdown.
Overseas, the film added Rs 0.25 crore, taking its international total to Rs 424.50 crore, and the worldwide gross now stands at Rs 1,779.02 crore. However, it narrowly missed the Rs 1,780 crore global milestone.
The Ranveer Singh-led action drama had earlier benefited from weekend momentum, even while competing with Bhooth Bangla and Hollywood’s Michael biopic.

Monday’s numbers make the contrast between the two films unmistakably clear. Bhooth Bangla is still in its strong-performing phase, holding up well even after the weekend surge and comfortably maintaining its run in the Rs 100 crore-plus club in India. The drop on Day 11 is sharp but expected, and the overall trend still signals solid audience pull and steady theatre occupancy.
On the other hand, Dhurandhar: The Revenge is firmly in its late theatrical phase. The Day 40 fall to Rs 1.05 crore confirms that the film has moved out of its high-earning cycle, relying now on residual audience interest rather than momentum. Despite its massive lifetime total of over Rs 1,700 crore worldwide, the daily earnings clearly show fatigue after a prolonged run.
Bhooth Bangla is still actively performing at the box office with commercial strength intact, while Dhurandhar 2 is now in its winding-down stage after an extraordinary long run.
