BB3-Singham Again Enter 100 Crore Club!

The
two-and-a-half
month
drought
at
the
box
office
has
finally
ended.

The
Diwali
releases

Singham
Again
and

Bhool
Bhulaiyaa
3
have
opened
well,
bringing
back
cheers
for
exhibitors
as
well
as
distributors.

Between
the
two
films,
more
than
Rs
225
crore
(Rs
2.25
billion)
comfortably
came
in
the
first
three
days
itself.

They
were
expected
to
do
well,
but
they
did
even
better,
with

Singham
Again
earning
over
Rs
40
crore
(Rs
400
million)
and

Bhool
Bhulaiyaa
3
earning
over
Rs
35
crore
(Rs
350
million).

The
rest
of
the
weekend
brought
in
consistent
collections,
and
that’s
remarkable
too
because
post
Diwali-there
is
typically
a
drop
in
collections
but
that
didn’t
happen
here.

This
shows
that
target
audiences
at
the
multiplexes
as
well
as
single
screens
were
receptive
to
the
two
films
and
ensured
that
the
footfalls
were
consistent.

As
a
result,
both
films
have
entered
the
Rs
100
Crore
Club
(Rs
1
billion)
in
their
opening
weekend
itself.

While

Singham
Again
has
crossed
Rs
125
crore
(Rs
1.25
billion),

Bhool
Bhulaiyaa
3
has
surpassed
Rs
105
crore
(Rs
1.05
billion).

Had
the
two
films
released
solo,
the
individual
collections
would
have
been
bigger.
But
with


60:40
distribution
in
theatre
screens,
the
collections
have
also
been
distributed
in
the
same
way.

The
next
big
target
for
the
two
films
is
an
entry
into
the
Rs
200
Crore
Club
(Rs
2
billion)
and
that
should
eventually
happen.

Note:
All
collections
as
per
various
box
office
sources.
