Kapkapiii Box Office Day 1: Shreyas Talpade's Horror Comedy Off To A Slow Start
Last Updated:
Tusshar Kapoor and Shreyas Talpade have previously shared the screen space in Golmaal Returns, Golmaal 3 and Golmaal Again.
Kapkapiii, the Shreyas Talpade and Tusshar Kapoor starrer horror-comedy, has made a lackluster debut at the box office. Released on limited screens, the film couldn't gather much audience despite giving special offers like Buy-One-Get-One for the opening weekend. According to sacnilk.com, the film minted a total of Rs 26 Lakh Nett India on Day 1.
The major reason for the low numbers could be its stiff competition from big projects like Bhool Chuk Maaf, featuring RajKummar Rao and Wamiqa Gabbi, as well as Kesari Veer: The Legends of the Somnath, starring Sooraj Pancholi.
Some of the other holdover releases, including Ajay Devgn's Raid 2, Akshay Kumar's Kesari 2, Tom Cruise's Mission: Impossible 8 and Final Destination: Bloodlines, are too big competitors for the horror-comedy due to their exceptional performance on the big screen. However, going by the positive word-of-mouth of the critics and viewers, Kapkapiii is expected to gain momentum in the coming days.
Directed by Sangeeth Sivan, the film is an official Hindi remake of the Malayalam film Romancham and also features celebs like Siddhi Idani, Jay Thakkar, Sonia Rathee and Varun Pandey in significant roles.
Kapkapiii marked Sivan's collaboration with Tusshar after a long gap of 19 years. They had previously worked together in Kya Kool Hain Hum, while the director joined hands with Shreyas Talpade in the 2006 comedy-drama Apna Sapna Money Money.
The director lost his life during the making of Kapkapiii, while the film was in post-production. Recently, in a chat with Zoom, Tusshar mourned his demise and said, 'This is a sensitive topic for all of us. We are still in disbelief. The shock and emotional overwhelm are not intended to carry his legacy or memories forward. Unfortunately, he's not here to enjoy the film."
The film follows a group of friends who, while experimenting with an Ouija board, unintentionally trigger paranormal activity in their shared home. This results in a series of spooky and hilarious events, blending horror with comedy.
Tusshar and Shreyas have previously shared the screen space in Rohit Shetty's Golmaal Returns, Golmaal 3 and Golmaal Again. They will be reuniting again for Welcome…To The Jungle, co-starring Akshay Kumar, Paresh Rawal and others.

Meet actress who made her debut at 15, left acting due to…, made a come back, gave Rs 1000 crore film, her name is…
In a world where box office records are mostly headlined by male superstars, one actress silently broke the mould — and the Rs 1000 crore ceiling — without the noise or nepotism. While most would guess names like Madhuri Dixit, Aishwarya Rai, or Katrina Kaif, the real game-changer is someone who started acting at 15, debuted in a blink-and-miss Bollywood film (Chand Sa Roshan Chehra, 2005), and then disappeared — only to rise as a megastar in South Indian cinema. Who is she? She is none other than Tamannaah Bhatia, her trajectory is anything but conventional. After her Bollywood debut, she shifted gears and made a mark down South. Her breakthrough came with Happy Days (Telugu, 2007), and her momentum continued with Tamil films like Kalloori and Ayan, solidifying her presence in both industries. Then came 2015, and the project that changed everything: Baahubali: The Beginning. The epic saga not only became a cultural phenomenon but also raked in over Rs 600 crore worldwide. Two years later, Baahubali 2: The Conclusion shattered every box office projection and made cinematic history, crossing Rs 1810 crore globally. With that, Tamannaah etched her name in history as the first Indian actress to be part of a Rs 1000 crore film, proving that a leading lady can carry the legacy of a blockbuster as powerfully as her male counterparts. Today, Tamannaah continues to strike a balance between Bollywood and South cinema. Most recently, she appeared in Raid 2 opposite Ajay Devgn, a move that reflects her effortless cross-industry appeal. She may not make headlines every day, but Tamannaah's success speaks volumes in crores.

While some try to make a mockery of such subjects, this film does not just keep its focus on the characters but also gives a life lesson. This film is a typical Aamir Khan-style film that perfectly balances humour and emotions and does not feel like a forced sequel at all; instead, it raises the bar high for its remarkable legacy.'
