Given the numbers and as per Pinkvilla, Tom Cruise starrer Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning will surpass other Hollywood releases of this year in India, including Fast X and Flash, which sold around 75,000 and 50,000 tickets, respectively. As per Box Office collection, Fast X opened at Rs 12.50 crore, and MI 7 is expected to earn between Rs 12 to 14 crore on its opening day. The numbers could have spiked but have fallen a little behind the Rs 15 crore mark, given its mid-week release. But the spot sales can always change the numbers!
The weekend sales numbers are also bright for the movie as it has sold approx 1,50,000 tickets for the 5-day extended time frame. Despite not getting a Friday release, the film will most probably continue to gain numbers as the sales are divided in the non-holiday 5-day release period. As for the weekend itself, Saturday has already recorded its biggest day in terms of bookings, which is unusual for any Hollywood movie that gets a mid-week release.
For the unversed, Mission: Impossible 6 garnered Rs 9.50 crore on its opening day, and this time, the instalment has shown a growth of 35 per cent. But, if it will break the records of Vin Diesel starrer Fast X is yet to be seen.
If movie reviews are to be believed, then Tom Cruise starrer Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning can become one of the biggest successes in India.
