According to industry tracker, the thrill didn't end there as 'Barbie' proceeded to enthral viewers on Saturday, earning an additional Rs 6.5 crore.

According to industry assessments, 'Barbie' had an impressive 53.67 percent occupancy throughout its English showings. The afternoon, night, and morning screenings were eagerly followed by the evening performances, which were in high demand due to their engaging tale that appealed to both children and adults. The film, directed by the great Greta Gerwig, offers a fun family experience while gently incorporating social commentary, which increases its appeal to a wide audience.

In a real confrontation of the titans of cinema, 'Barbie' competed head-to-head at the box office with Christopher Nolan's eagerly awaited biopic 'Oppenheimer.' In spite of the fierce competition, 'Barbie' proved its tenacity by remaining competitive in the Indian market. 'Oppenheimer' started out with a leg up, earning an amazing Rs 31.5 crore over the course of its two-day run.

But 'Barbie' fought back with unquestionable strength, winning the US market by bringing in almost twice as much money as Nolan's movie did. The Hollywood Reporter claims that on Friday, 'Barbie' stunned American viewers with an astounding $70.5 million, while 'Oppenheimer' only managed to bring in $33 million.

Along with Robbie and Gosling, 'Barbie' also stars America Ferrera, Kate McKinnon, Simu Lu, Michael Cera, and Ariana Greenblatt in a strong ensemble cast. The film's general popularity and success were definitely influenced by the star-studded cast.

This movie is well-positioned to continue its incredible journey at the box office and beyond thanks to its strong performances and broad appeal.
