Lee Cronin’s The Mummy continues to perform well at the box office. The horror film added Rs. 2 crore to the tally on its first Wednesday, which is equal to its opening day. The 6-day cume of the film crossed the Rs. 15 crore mark at the Indian box office.
It is looking to wind up its first week around Rs. 17 crore. The movie is expected to see some spikes in its second weekend, which will take its cume close to the Rs. 25 crore mark. However, it will face Michael from the coming weekend, which might dent its box office run.
That said, the movie has already become a success in India. It will secure a Clean Hit verdict by next week. It may not look like an F1 The Movie or a Project Hail Mary, but with these holds, it can certainly have a solid run. Initially, Rs. 20 crore appeared to be the likely finish point, but now it could probably go for Rs. 30 crore or more, which would be an excellent outcome for a film like this.

The Mummy trilogy was very popular in India in the past. The 1999 film grossed around Rs. 20 crore, with the sequels collecting Rs. 27 crore in 2001 and Rs. 48 crore in 2008. All these adjusts to over or around Rs. 200 crore today. While this film is not part of that franchise, the familiar title has likely aided initial recognition. Regardless, the film could become a HIT, and that will be the second of the year for Hollywood in India.
