2022 has definitely been one of the worst years for Bollywood at the box office. In the post-pandemic phase, we have hardly seen Hindi movies raking moolah at the ticket windows. But the past 10 days have cheered all the cinegoers as Ajay Devgn's Drishyam 2 and Varun Dhawan's Bhediya have brought the audience back to the cinema halls.

While the Abhishek Pathak directorial dominated VD's creature comedy, the last weekend's business promised a great conclusion of 2022 for Bollywood. While Drishyam 2 collected Rs 39.24 crore, Bhediya raked in Rs 28.55 crore. The cumulative collection of both films in the last weekend is Rs 67.79 crore, which is a great number, especially coming during the non-holiday period.

November certainly has been a good month for Bollywood as before Bhediya and Drishyam 2, Sooraj Barjatya's Uunchai featuring Amitabh Bachchan, Anupam Kher, Boman Irani, Danny Denzongpa, Neena Gupta and Sarika, turned out to be a sleeper hit at the box office.

In the month of December, we will see two prominent Bollywood releases  - Ayushmann Khurrana's An Action Hero and Ranveer Singh-Pooja Hegde's Cirkus. The audience has sky-high expectations from the latter as it brings the Gully Boy star and blockbuster filmmaker Rohit Shetty after the grand success of Simmba.
