Sat Sep 14 12:58:32 UTC 2024: ## Tumbbad Back in Theatres, Surpasses Original Opening Day Collection
**Mumbai, India** – Sohum Shah’s acclaimed horror film, *Tumbbad*, has made a triumphant return to Indian cinemas, exceeding its original opening day collection. The film, which was re-released on Friday, September 13th, garnered approximately Rs 1.50 crore nett, surpassing the opening day box office figures of Kareena Kapoor Khan’s latest film, *The Buckingham Murders*.
*Tumbbad*, directed by Hansal Mehta, is anticipated to see further growth over the weekend, buoyed by positive buzz surrounding its re-release and the promise of a captivating cinematic experience. Backed by Sohum Shah and Aanand L Rai, the film is expected to surpass its original lifetime domestic collection of Rs 10 crore nett.
With no new Hindi releases hitting the screens, *Tumbbad* is poised to cross Rs 10 crore nett in the first week itself. While *The Buckingham Murders*, a crime thriller targeted at a niche audience, is unlikely to compete with the resurgence of *Tumbbad* in theatres.
Adding to the excitement, Sohum Shah announced *Tumbbad 2* on Saturday, September 14th, sharing a teaser that hints at a sequel even more mysterious and captivating than its predecessor.
The success of *Tumbbad’s* re-release comes as no surprise. The film was critically acclaimed and gained a new audience on streaming platforms. Its return to theatres seems to confirm its enduring appeal and its ability to resonate with viewers on the big screen.
