31 Mar
Summary
- New film 'Bhooth Bangla' reportedly spans 2 hours and 50 minutes.
- This runtime would be one of Akshay Kumar's longest in over a decade.
- Film's trailer and release date remain officially unconfirmed.

The Akshay Kumar-starrer 'Bhooth Bangla' is reportedly nearing a runtime of 2 hours and 50 minutes. This duration positions it among the actor's longest films released in the past 12 years, a period where most of his movies have been shorter. The longest comparison point is 'Holiday - A Soldier Is Never Off Duty,' also 2 hours and 50 minutes, released in 2014.
Speculation about 'Bhooth Bangla's' release date continues, with initial April 10 and April 17 rumors yet to be officially confirmed. The trailer's delay from March 27 to March 30, and its subsequent non-release, further fuels anticipation and hints at potential schedule shifts for the horror-comedy.
Prior to 'Holiday,' Akshay Kumar has featured in eleven films with runtimes exceeding 2 hours and 30 minutes. These include 'Baby' (2015), 'Brothers' (2015), 'Rustom' (2016), 'Toilet - Ek Prem Katha' (2017), 'Gold' (2018), 'Kesari' (2019), 'OMG 2' (2023), 'Bade Miyan Chote Miyan' (2014), 'Sarfira' (2024), 'Housefull 5' (2025), and 'Jolly LLB 3' (2025).
Additionally, his 2025 Telugu film 'Kannappa,' with a 3-hour and 3-minute runtime, featured him in a special role. The final runtime of 'Bhooth Bangla' will be confirmed closer to its release, post-censor board review.
