In an evolving world, emerging research continues to highlight concerns that could impact everyday wellbeing. Here’s the key update you should know about:
The Conjuring Last Rites Beats Baaghi 4 and The Bengal Files:
The horror franchise The Conjuring continues to prove its strong fan base in India. The latest installment, The Conjuring: Last Rites, has taken a stunning lead in advance sales, selling over 1.20 lakh tickets across the country. This is a huge margin compared to its Bollywood competitors, showing the power of Hollywood horror at the Indian box office. With today’s ticket sales still remaining, the film is likely to hit 1.75 lakhs mark by the end of the day and might even make it to 2 lakhs, which will be a huge number for any mid-budget Hollywood flick in India.
In comparison, Tiger Shroff and Sanjay Dutt’s action drama Baaghi 4 has managed close to 65,000 tickets in advance booking, while Vivek Agnihotri’s period drama The Bengal Files has sold around 6,000 tickets so far. The difference clearly shows how the Conjuring Universe has built a loyal audience in India over the years.

The Conjuring Last Rites is directed by Michael Chaves and stars Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga, who return as paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren. The film promises chilling scares, a dark storyline, and is expected to be one of the most successful horror releases in the country. The franchise already has a big following here, but this time the hype is much bigger, turning into record-breaking numbers before release.

On the other hand, Baaghi 4, with its high-octane stunts and Tiger Shroff’s mass appeal, is still expected to draw huge crowds once it opens. Meanwhile, The Bengal Files, a political drama, may rely more on word of mouth. For now, The Conjuring: Last Rites has emerged as the clear winner, proving that horror fans in India are louder than ever. Will the horror flick continue the same lead in the box office figures too?
