Project Hail Mary is holding well at the box office. The sci-fi action-adventure film recorded a spike of 20 per cent on its first Tuesday, adding Rs. 3.50 crore to the tally. This took its 6-day cume to Rs. 23.55 crore gross at the Indian box office.
The Ryan Gosling starrer met with positive word-of-mouth, which has translated into footfalls. Like every Hollywood movie, a significant chunk of its earnings comes from the urban centres. It is likely to close its first week around Rs. 26 crore gross or so.
If the movie continues to perform well in its second and third weeks too, it will close its theatrical cume somewhere around Rs. 50 crore gross in India, which will be an impressive total for a non-franchise sci-fi Hollywood film.
