Vikram Bhatt’s latest offering in the horror franchise ‘Haunted 3D: Echoes of the Past’ has surprised everyone with a better than expected opening at the box office. Despite limited promotion and competition with many big films, the film was successful in drawing the audience to the theatres. After earning well on the first day, the film’s earnings have jumped by about 30 percent on the second day. This horror thriller starring Mahaakshay Chakraborty, Chetna Pandey and Hemant Pandey now seems to be making a strong hold at the box office. The special thing is that the budget of the film is also said to be relatively low.
‘Haunted 3D: Echoes of the Past’ shows strong growth on the second day

The film collected a net collection of around Rs 3.25 crore on the second day, which is about 30 percent more than the first day’s earning of Rs 2.50 crore. This is an indication that the film is getting the benefit of positive mouth publicity among the audience.
‘Haunted 3D: Echoes of the Past’ reaches strong collection in two days
According to initial figures, the total India gross collection of the film has reached Rs 6.78 crore. At the same time, India net collection has been recorded at Rs 5.75 crore. This performance is considered encouraging for horror genre films. At the time of release, the film had to compete with many popular films like ‘Bharat Bhagya Vidhaata’, ‘Main Vapsar Aaunga’ and ‘Governor’. Despite this, the audience did not ignore this horror thriller. Despite less promotion, the continuous increase in the collection of the film is considered a relief news for the makers.
Sequel to the 2011 superhit film ‘Haunted 3D: Echoes of the Past’
‘Haunted 3D: Echoes of the Past’ is the sequel to the 2011 superhit horror film ‘Haunted 3D’. The first film is counted among the most successful horror films of its era. For this reason, there was already curiosity among the audience about the new film. According to media reports, the film has been made at a cost of approximately Rs 15 crore.
