Box Office: Anees Bazmee scores his second biggest opener with Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2

An acclaimed writer for close to four decades and a filmmaker since 1995 (when he made his debut with Hulchul), Anees Bazmee is one director who has kept pace with times. This can well be seen from the fact that when other filmmakers who started at the same time as him are nowhere to be seen and have completely faded away from the Bollywood scene, he is someone who is not just staying on to be relevant but is also speaking the language of the youth.

No wonder, when the Hindi film industry is going through tough times, he has come ahead and delivered the biggest Bollywood opener of 2022 in the form of Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2. With Kartik Aaryan in the lead and Kiara Advani and Tabu as the leading ladies, he has not just ensured a double digit start for the film but is now also looking at an amazing weekend ahead. As a matter of fact the film could well have been his best ever but then is just a shade behind Welcome Back which had a slightly bigger opening. On the other hand it is bigger than Ready.

Here is looking at the biggest opening days scored by Anees Bazmee over the years:

Welcome Back – Rs. 14.35 crores

Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 – Rs. 14.11 crores

Ready – Rs. 13.15 crores

Singh Is Kinng – Rs. 7.24 crores

Mubarakan – Rs. 5.16 crores

Thank You – Rs. 5 crores

Paagalpanti – Rs. 4.75 crores

No Problem – Rs. 4.50 crores

Welcome – Rs. 3.32 crores

No Entry – Rs. 1.72 crores

In this list, there is one Rs. 100 Crore Club earner in the form of Ready, while Welcome Back could well have been there as well but missed it just about. Now the manner in which Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 is doing currently, it is bound to score a century as well and may even end up challenging Ready to emerge as Anees Bazmee’s biggest ever.
