Oppenheimer crossed over fifty crore since the first week of release.
Oppenheimer is a historical drama that narrates the tale of the American physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer and how he became the father of the atomic bomb. The movie has Cillian Murphy in the titular role and Emily Blunt plays the role of his spouse. Robert Downey Jr also played an important role in the movie.
It was a historic weekend for the films as Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer and Greta Gerwig’s Barbie lured people to the cinema halls in huge numbers. However, Oppenheimer outperformed Barbie (at least in India) as it registered an opening weekend haul of Rs 49 crore. Barbie, alternatively, made Rs 18 cr. After housefull indicated over the weekend, a rarity in post-pandemic times, the Cillian Murphy-starrer earned Rs 7 cr (early estimates) on its first Monday.
Industry tracker Sacnilk suggested that the Nolan film had 21.07% English occupancy on its first weekday. The movie had opened with Rs 14.5 crore on Friday, which was changed by the rate of Rs 17 cr on Saturday and Rs 17.25 cr on Sunday. With this, the movie’s total series in India stands at Rs 55 cr. Internationally, the film has earned over 174 million dollars.
