Mumbai, India | April 21, 2026
The Monday box office trend presented a mixed picture for major releases, with Bhoot Bangla slowing after a strong weekend, while Dhurandhar 2 continued its historic run and Dacoit struggled to maintain momentum.
👻 ‘Bhoot Bangla’ Faces Monday Test
Akshay Kumar’s horror-comedy Bhoot Bangla witnessed a sharp dip on its first Monday, collecting ₹6.75 crore on Day 4, compared to a strong ₹23 crore on Sunday.
The film’s total collection now stands at ₹64.75 crore. Despite a promising opening weekend, the movie appears to be slowing down and may find it challenging to match the success of the actor’s earlier hits.
🔥 ‘Dhurandhar 2’ Maintains Box Office Dominance
Meanwhile, Ranveer Singh’s Dhurandhar 2 continues to dominate even after more than a month in theaters.
- Day 33 Collection (Monday): ₹1.62 crore
- Sunday Collection: ₹5.20 crore
- Total India Collection: ₹1,117.33 crore
- Worldwide Collection: ₹1,791.42 crore
The film has created history by becoming the first Bollywood movie to cross the ₹1000 crore mark domestically, cementing its position as a blockbuster phenomenon.
📉 ‘Dacoit’ Struggles to Sustain Momentum
The bilingual crime drama Dacoit, starring Adivi Sesh and Mrunal Thakur, continues to underperform.
- Day 11 Collection (Monday): ₹0.40 crore
- Sunday Collection: ₹1.46 crore
- Total Collection: ₹32.46 crore
After a modest run, the film’s earnings have now dropped significantly, indicating weak traction among audiences.

🎯 Industry Outlook
Trade analysts say Monday collections often reflect a film’s sustainability beyond the opening weekend. While Dhurandhar 2 continues to show remarkable consistency, Bhoot Bangla will need strong weekday performance to maintain momentum.
Meanwhile, Dacoit faces an uphill battle as its collections decline sharply in the second week.
