The ghost of Munjya isn’t just scaring audiences on screen; it’s also rattling the box office record books. This low-budget horror-comedy has become a surprise financial juggernaut, inching its way towards the coveted title of the most profitable Hindi film of 2024.
Abhay Verma-starrer Munjya’s spooky success story began with a modest budget of 30 crore. However, the film quickly captured the imagination of viewers, amassing a domestic collection of 102.06 crore and a global gross of a staggering 125.43 crore (5 crore Overseas + 120.43 crore India Gross). This translates to a jaw-dropping profit of 72.06 crore, putting a massive smile on the faces of the filmmakers.
But the real scare Munjya is giving is to HanuMan (Hindi), the current holder of the “Most Profitable Hindi Films of 2024” title. HanuMan boasts a stellar 241.17% Return on Investment (ROI). Munjya, hot on its heels, trails closely behind with an impressive 240.2% ROI. It’s a nail-biting race for the top spot, with Munjya needing a mere 1% swing to dethrone the mighty HanuMan.
