The trend followed with 41.83% audience in the afternoon shows and 48.84% bookings in the evening shows. This is the first time Vidya Balan and Madhuri Dixit have shared screen space in the film.
Sharing the detailed report of the film, Taran Adarsh wrote in his X post, "BhoolBhulaiyaa3 scores a fantastic number in its opening weekend... Crosses ₹ cr on Sunday [Day 3] - a remarkable feat given the fierce competition from #SinghamAgain, which led to split screens, divided showtimes, and shared audience attention. BhoolBhulaiyaa3 has fared very well across the board, with Delhi and West Bengal emerging as standout states.
In his review for NDTV, film critic Saibal Chatterjee wrote, "It is evident that Kartik Aaryan has got the hang of the weird and disorienting house of mirrors that is Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3. His star turn is a repeat act that promises a box-office outcome that could be on par with what Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 yielded."
