Bhooth Bangla makers announce one plus one offer

Ekta Kapoor’s Balaji Motion Pictures, one of the producers of Bhooth Bangla, announced on Tuesday evening that tickets for the Akshay film are going on sale. The production house wrote, “Why witness the madness alone when you can double it?” and announced that the offer code BHOOTHBANGLA can be used while booking tickets on BookMyShow.

On Wednesday, too, they announced: “Iss Bangle mein entry solo nahi milti… plus one zaroori hai (Entry in this bungalow is forbidden for one, a plus one is mandatory). Buy 1 ticket and get 1 free on @bookmyshow. Offer live now!” The offer, which has been live since April 28, Tuesday, will continue till May 3, Sunday.

The offer seems to be working because Bhooth Bangla saw a jump in collections and higher occupancy on Tuesday. According to the trade website Sacnilk, the film had 15% occupancy on Tuesday and collected ₹4.35 crore, compared to Monday’s 11% occupancy and ₹3.50 crore collection.

Bhooth Bangla has collected ₹121.25 crore net in India, as of Tuesday, and ₹195.08 crore worldwide. The filmmakers announced on Wednesday that the film grossed ₹203.65 crore worldwide. The film has maintained momentum despite competition from Dhurandhar 2, released on March 19, and Michael, released on April 24. It remains to be seen how much it collects over the weekend.
