At the same time, the collection of Kangana Ranaut's 'Dhaakad' started falling on the second day itself. The action-thriller is considered to be one of the flop films of her career.

The film earned Rs 31.11 crore in two days at the box office, adding Rs 14.11 crore that is collected on its opening day. The Sunday collection of the film is expected to be above Rs 20 crore and accordingly, director Anees Bazmee's film 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2' will cross the Rs 50 crore mark in the first weekend itself.
Dhaakad performs poorly at box office: Kangana Ranaut’s ‘Dhaakad’ seems to be trailing at the box office, with the movie performing lower on the second day compared to its opening day collection. The film earned only Rs 1.05 crore on Saturday against the Rs 1.20 crore that it managed to earn on an opening day. Dhaakad has managed to earn Rs 2.25 crores in two days.

Ayushmana Khurrana's ‘Anek' to release next week: After Bhool Bhuliya 2, T-Series is looking at another release of its film – Anek, starring Ayushmann Khurrana in the lead role. Director Anubhav Sinha's film rests solely on Ayushmann, the hero of his previous film 'Article 15'. After Ayushmann Khurrana and Amitabh Bachchan-starrer 'Gulabo Sitabo', the ‘Vicky donor’ actor has not done a film that did a decent job at the box office. His last film 'Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui' also failed at the box office.
