Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, featuring Tom Cruise in his iconic role of Ethan Hunt, has performed well so far at the Indian box office. Released on Saturday (May 17), the magnum opus didn’t get the benefit of the complete weekend, but still amassed a strong number in a couple of days. After crossing 35 crores in just 2 days, it had a real test yesterday, on the first Monday. While the recorded collection is decent, a much higher number was expected.

Faces a much bigger drop than expected on Monday

In the first two days, the star power of Tom Cruise and the Mission: Impossible franchise attracted the footfall. Also, since word-of-mouth has been favorable, it got that additional boost. The momentum was expected to be carried into weekdays, but unfortunately, that didn’t happen. It was expected to earn in the range of 9-10 crores. Even 8 crores could have been a good result, but it didn’t happen.

With considerable drops in occupancy and a slight reduction in shows, Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning managed to bring in an estimated 7 crores on the first Monday. Compared to Saturday’s 17.50 crores, it’s a drop of 60%, which is higher than expected. In isolation, it still looks decent and pushes the overall 3-day collection to 42.50 crore net at the Indian box office.
