This past weekend, Bohurupi achieved its biggest box office performance yet, with a staggering 160 houseful shows in just three days—an unprecedented feat for any Bengali film in its fifth week of screening.
One of the film’s most significant achievements is its status as the highest-grossing Bengali film in national multiplexes, surpassing ₹5 crore in collections outside of Bengal.

The directors' heartfelt words reflect the universal appeal of Bohurupi, a film that blends local cultural elements with universally relatable themes, making it resonate with viewers far beyond Bengal.
The success of Bohurupi is a testament to the growing influence of regional cinema in India and the power of a well-crafted, emotionally engaging story. It’s a triumph for Bengali cinema, which has long been known for its rich storytelling tradition, but is now reaching new heights of national recognition. As Bohurupi continues to break records and capture hearts, it is setting a new benchmark for what Bengali films can achieve on the national stage. The film's record-breaking success is not just a victory for its creators but a proud moment for the entire Bengali film industry, and it paves the way for more regional films to garner the attention and admiration they deserve across the country.
