The Indian premiere of Christopher Nolan's ‘Oppenheimer,’ starring Cillian Murphy, Robert Downey Jr., Emily Blunt, Matt Damon, and others, was a great success. Early estimates indicate that the movie made between Rs 13 and Rs 13.50 crores nett on day one, making it the largest opening day for a Hollywood movie in India this year, beating out titles like Fast X and Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part 1.

These collections have mainly come from metropolitan areas and large cities, but that doesn't imply it hasn't performed well outside of those areas because theatres in small towns have also seen strong foot traffic.

'Oppenheimer's day 1 grosses have come despite the adverse film genre, fierce competition from 'Barbie,' and the massive holdover release of 'Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part 1,' which is a certified hit in India.

The movie has outstanding advance reservations, and there is a spillover demand that extends into the second weekend as well as the weekdays. ‘Oppenheimer’ is in the lead in India and a few other south Asian nations, but ‘Barbie’ is far ahead in every other film market.

‘Oppenheimer's previews for North America had a lot of impact. The previews alone brought in over $10.5 million, which suggests that the opening weekend cume could be closer to or above $75 million. For the weekend, worldwide receipts are predicted to be in the neighbourhood of $150 million, which is astounding considering the type of movie it is. The success of the movie for Universal has already been guaranteed by the first weekend alone.
