Kartik Aaryan’s ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3’ is going to scare everyone in a few hours. On one hand, there is a heated discussion about who will win in the clash of Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 with Ajay Devgn’s ‘Singham Again’. But if seen, Karthik and Manjulika each are competing not only with Rohit Shetty’s cop universe but also with the horror comedy films of this year. A horror comedy film came in the beginning of the year 2024, which did strong business at the box office as soon as it arrived.
First came ‘Shaitan’ then ‘Munjya’ and ‘Stree 2’ shook the box office throne. Now ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3’ is coming. In such a situation, the audience will also keep an eye on whether ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3’ can maintain the charm of horror comedy films? Will the year also end in the name of horror comedy? There are many such questions, the answers to which will be available only after the release of Karthik Aryan’s film. Before that, let’s take a look at the earnings of this year’s horror comedy films.
The magic of horror comedy films

- Munjya– ‘Munjya’ hit the theaters on June 7, 2024. This horror comedy film impressed everyone a lot. Sharvari Wagh’s work was also liked a lot. The story was strong, hence the film earned handsomely. ‘Munjya’, which was made with a budget of Rs 30 crore, earned more than Rs 132 crore.
- woman 2– ‘Stree 2’ came out on 15th August. Along with this film, ‘Khel Khel Mein’ and ‘Veda’ were also released, but ‘Stree 2’ defeated them. ‘Stree 2’ emerged as the queen of horror comedy and Jawan-Pathan’s records were also shattered in front of the huge earnings of the film. ‘Stree 2’, made with a budget of Rs 50 to 60 crores, did a worldwide business of Rs 874.58 crores at the box office.
