Megastar Amitabh Bachchan and child actor Parth Bhaleroa's film "Bhoothnath Returns" has finished seven days run by earning ₹30.14 crore.
After having a slow start, the horror comedy went smooth in weekends and during Monday and Tuesday, but on Wednesday and Thursday the collection declined drastically.
The collection of the film was affected at the domestic box office due to elections and IPL 7 matches.
"#BhoothnathReturns Fri ₹4.07 cr, Sat ₹5.85 cr, Sun ₹8.10 cr, Mon ₹4.40 cr, Tue ₹3.02 cr, Wed ₹2.25 cr, Thu ₹2.45 cr. Total: ₹ 30.14 cr nett," trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted.
With the release of "2 States" starring Alia Bhatt and Arjun Kapoor, "Bhoothnath Returns" collection will drop down more.
Meanwhile, Bachchan is overwhelmed with the response his film has received at the box office. He is also happy that the President of India, Pranab Mukherjee has taken out some time from his busy scheduled to watch "Bhoothnath Returns."
The film was screened at Rashtrapati Bhawan in New Delhi, for Mukherjee and selected gathering of people.
"The President of India, sees "Bhoothnath Returns" this evening at his Rashtrapati auditorium .. what an evening ! Protocol, order, system, ordinance ... all woven into a special evening .. and above all, the president applauds after the film is over and compliments its difficult, but well constructed story ... what an evening Bhoothnath Returns, party toh banti hai," Bachchan posted on his official Facebook page.
"Bhoothnath Returns" directed by Nitesh Tiwari features Boman Irani, Anurag Kashyap and Usha Nadkarni in supporting roles, while Shah Rukh Khan and Ranbir Kapoor make cameo appearances.
