Oppenheimer and Barbie pack a solid punch; two films collect Rs. 70 crores in opening weekend

By Author/Admin -

The much-awaited Christopher Nolan directorial, Oppenheimer has set the box office on fire in India. According to estimates, the epic biopic has collected Rs. 18.50 crores on Sunday taking the 3-day total collection close to Rs. 50 crores. The weekend business would have been even more if India had more IMAX, as the big screen format faced capacity issues over the weekend.

There will be a big spillover of the weekend to the weekdays and the movie is headed for a big run at the India Box Office and might also enter the Rs. 100 crore club in India. The film is doing exceptional business in the multiplexes and with no competition in the coming weeks for this section of the audience, it is expected to show very good hold at the box office in the long run.

The romantic comedy, Barbie, has also scored big numbers on the opening weekend, more so due to the limited release size in India. As per estimates, the film has collected in the range of Rs. 18.50 crores in its opening weekend and will be targeting a lifetime collection of Rs. 35 crores.

This should be a hit result for a film like Barbie, which is essentially a female-led normal romantic comedy releasing with near NIL promotions in India. The film, much like Oppenheimer, is doing well on the strength of national multiplex chains and is expected to show good holds over the weekdays too.
