Rahi Anil Barve’s Tumbbad, which re-released in theatres last week, has crossed the lifetime collections of the film during its original release in 2018.

After an impressive first week, Tumbbad re-release amassed Rs 13.44 crore nett, including an opening weekend total of Rs 7.34 crore nett. As per the makers, the supernatural horror film collected Rs 3.04 crore nett on second Friday, taking the total collection to Rs 16.44 crore nett.

The Sohum Shah-starrer witnessed a remarkable jump of nearly 100 per cent in box office collections on its second Friday, fuelled by National Cinema Day.

Siddhant Chaturvedi and Malavika Mohanan-starrer Yudhra, which released in theatres this Friday, earned Rs 4.52 crore nett on its opening day.
