Akshay Kumar’s horror comedy Bhooth Bangla is doing well in theatres. The film is directed by Priyadarshan and marks their reunion after many years. Fans liked the mix of comedy, horror, and family fun. After the good run of Oh My God 2, Akshay Kumar scored again with this film. The movie got strong word of mouth and many families watched it more than once.

Trade reports say the film kept steady collections even after weeks. It has made around 175 crore nett in India and close to 240 crore gross worldwide. This makes it one of the big hits of the year. The cast has Wamiqa Gabbi as the female lead. Other key actors are Tabu, Paresh Rawal, Rajpal Yadav, Jisshu Sengupta, Mithila Palkar, Rajesh Sharma, Manoj Joshi, and the late Asrani.

Akshay Kumar produced the film with Ektaa Kapoor and Shobha Kapoor. People loved Priyadarshan’s classic comedy style in the movie. The songs by Pritam also got good response. The film’s clean humor and spooky scenes worked well with all age groups. Many shows in small towns are still running housefull on weekends.

Bhooth Bangla is likely to come on Netflix around June 12. The final date will be shared by the team soon. Netflix has taken the digital rights of the film. With the OTT release, people who missed it in theatres can watch at home. The film is expected to get more views online because of Akshay Kumar’s fan base and the family friendly story. The makers are also planning a sequel if the digital response is strong.
