The movie has a plus factor of having a backdrop of politics, and as it is election time it was expected to do well. But ‘Bhootnath Returns’ was given a competition by non Hindi releases.

Total: ₹ 30.14 cr nett,” Adarsh tweeted.

The presence of Big B in the movie was a plus point for the movie and also some positive word-of-mouth surrounding the lighthearted moments in the film, led to a jump in the business for the weekend shows. “The film opened to a weak response on Friday but consolidated a bit on Saturday and did very well on Sunday,” says trade expert Vinod Mirani.
