'Bhooth Bangla's advance booking gives a strong signal
A report from koimoi.com says that 'Bhooth Bangla' has already sold over 1.94 lakh tickets in advance for its fifth day. This means the film has earned a gross of about ₹3.36 crore (excluding blocked seats) even before Tuesday's first show. The net collection from this is around ₹2.85 crore, which is a very positive sign.
Over-the-counter sales will boost 'Bhooth Bangla's earnings
On top of advance bookings, the film is also expected to get a big boost from over-the-counter ticket sales on Tuesday. The cheaper tickets will likely attract more walk-in audiences, which will further strengthen the day's total earnings.
