Dhumketu (Bengali) Box Office Collection Day 6: Bengali cinema has witnessed many blockbusters, but few have managed to blend nostalgia, romance, and cinematic scale quite like Dhumketu.
Starring Dev and Subhashree, this 2025 release isn’t just a film – it’s a phenomenon. With box office numbers soaring past expectations and fans lining up for repeat viewings, Dhumketu is writing its name in bold letters across Tollywood’s hall of fame.
From its advance booking, Dhumketu aka DeSu6 – Dev-Subhashree’s 6th film together – made its intentions clear – this was going to be a chart-topper.

Directed by Kaushik Ganguly, Dhumketu is not just a commercial success; it’s a cultural moment. It’s been a while since we saw Dev and Subhashree together in such commanding roles, and their reunion is nothing short of electric. The duo shares a magnetic chemistry that feels both fresh and deeply familiar, reigniting memories of their early collaborations that once defined an era of romantic Bengali films. Remember the grand trailer launch event at the Nazrul Mancha?

Did Dhumketu Beat Khadaan’s First Tuesday Earnings?
Did Dev-Subhashree’s Dhumketu manage to beat Dev’s 2024 blockbuster Khadaan, the highest-grossing Bengali film as of now, on Tuesday? Even though Dhumketu has already surpassed Khadaan’s 6-day earnings, it has failed to surpass Khadaan’s first Tuesday numbers. According to Sacnilk, Khadaan had netted around Rs 1.26 cr on its first Tuesday, which was on Christmas Eve (Dec 24).
