Box Office: Bou Butta Bhuta continues with historic run; Babushaan Mohanty starrer nets better than day one on 2nd Friday
Bou Butta Bhuta is on a historic run. It has become the pride of Odia cinema. The second weekend can better the first, going by the trend.

The Odia horror-thriller Bou Buttu Bhuta, starring Babushaan Mohanty, has taken the box office by storm. It is performing on a historic level even after its first week in which it collected an impressive Rs 6.95 crore net. As the movie has entered its second week, it is continuing to show remarkable strength, with its second Friday (Day 9) expected to rake in Rs 90 lakh, matching the strong performance of its second Thursday (Day 8), which also collected Rs 90 lakh. These numbers are particularly exciting because they surpass the film’s opening day collection of Rs 40 lakh. This highlights its extraordinary success and growing popularity.
