According to Sacnilk.com, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 has amassed ₹231.4 crore in India after 17 days, slightly edging past Singham Again, which stands at ₹231.26 crore. The neck-and-neck race has seen Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 emerging as the winner, continuing its strong run at theatres.

Reacting to the clash and the films’ box office performance, Anees Bazmee told Hindustan Times, “It is a minute number. Such a small thing doesn’t make any difference. Koi film 2 ₹ zyada hai, aur koi kum… What matters is that both the films have done good business and brought huge crowds to the theatres.”
