About Singham Again

Singham Again is the third installment in the hugely popular Singham franchise, which began in 2011 with Ajay Devgn in the role of fearless cop Bajirao Singham. The first two films, Singham (2011) and Singham Returns (2014), were both box-office hits, solidifying Ajay Devgn’s image as the no-nonsense, action-packed police officer. This new installment, directed by Rohit Shetty, raises the stakes with an ensemble cast featuring Akshay Kumar, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Deepika Padukone, Arjun Kapoor, Tiger Shroff, Jackie Shroff, and Ranveer Singh. With an all-star lineup and high-octane action sequences, Singham Again promised fans another exhilarating ride in Shetty’s cop universe.

About Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3

On the other hand, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, the third entry in the beloved horror-comedy franchise that started with the Priyadarshan-directed Bhool Bhulaiyaa (2007), brings back the iconic character of Manjulika. Kartik Aaryan leads this sequel as Rooh Baba, with the film also featuring Vidya Balan, who reprises her role as Avni/Manjulika from the original, along with Madhuri Dixit Nene and Triptii Dimri. Set in the culturally rich city of Kolkata, West Bengal, the movie blends humor and horror in a spooky storyline that has drawn audiences for years. After the success of Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2, fans were eagerly awaiting this follow-up, hoping for the same laughter and chills.

Box Office Numbers: Singham Again vs Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3

According to Sacnilk.com, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 made a solid start, pulling in an estimated ₹35.5 crore on its first day, marking the biggest opening of Kartik Aaryan’s career. This debut surpasses his previous best, including Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 (₹14.11 crore) and Love Aaj Kal 2 (₹12.40 crore), establishing Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 as a major box office draw.

However, Singham Again took a clear lead, grossing ₹43.50 crore on its opening day. The combination of Ajay Devgn’s established character and Rohit Shetty’s action-packed direction, coupled with a Diwali release, helped the cop-universe film dominate the box office in its first outing. This figure makes Singham Again one of the highest-opening films for Ajay Devgn, setting a strong foundation for a potentially blockbuster run.

With both films catering to distinct fan bases, it’s likely that Singham Again will continue to appeal to action lovers, while Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 provides comic relief with a hint of horror. As the Diwali weekend unfolds, the battle for the box office crown is expected to intensify, with each film vying to maximize its collections.

Final Verdict

With its higher opening numbers, Singham Again appears to have the upper hand over Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 on Day 1. However, with both films drawing strong initial interest, the true test will be sustaining momentum in the days ahead. This Diwali, audiences are truly spoiled for choice between Ajay Devgn’s intense action and Kartik Aaryan’s spooky comedy, making it a memorable festive release for Bollywood.
