**Mumbai, India** – The upcoming Diwali box office clash between Kartik Aaryan’s *Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3* and Ajay Devgn’s *Singham Again* is heating up, with both films already generating significant buzz through advance bookings. Despite *Singham Again* securing 60% of screens nationwide, *Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3* has taken the lead in advance ticket sales, according to data from sacnilk.com.
*Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3*, a horror-comedy, has sold over 235,000 tickets worth approximately Rs. 7.50 crore, while *Singham Again*, an action thriller, has sold around 189,000 tickets worth Rs. 6.15 crore. Trade experts predict *Singham Again* to open at around Rs. 40-45 crore, while *Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3* could earn Rs. 20-25 crore on its opening day.
The two films are expected to impact each other’s business, leading to an interesting box office battle. Both films have the potential to achieve blockbuster status, with experts predicting lifetime collections exceeding Rs. 1,000 crore.
In a separate incident, the title track of *Singham Again* was removed from YouTube due to a copyright strike by T-Series. The song featured a new score by Ravi Basrur, incorporating parts of the original *Singham* theme from 2011. An edited version was later re-uploaded, but it lacked the iconic *Singham* theme composed by Ajay-Atul for the 2011 film.
This Diwali, the box office battle between *Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3* and *Singham Again* promises to be a thrilling race to the top.
