F1 India Box Office: Brad Pitt starrer amazes with a 40 percent growth on Saturday; Nets Rs 12.50 crore in 2 days and set to emerge a HIT
Joseph Krasinski's F1 starring Brad Pitt, Kerry Condon and others, showed a stiff 40 percent growth on its second day at the box office after a superb first day of Rs 5.25 crore. With Rs 7.25 crore net on day 2, the total of F1 stands at Rs 12.50 crore and by the end of the weekend, it should be Rs 20 crore net.
The Day Wise Net India Collections Of F1 Are As Under
F1 Stands At Rs 12.50 Crore Net After 2 Days In India
F1 got a start and the strong word around the film should help it trend well in India, despite competition. The fact that it retains IMAX screens in week 2 as well shall ensure remarkable numbers even when Jurassic World Rebirth hits theatres next week. Final collections in the range of the superhit Final Destination: Bloodlines can't be ruled out strictly by the kind of acceptance that it enjoys. That would also make F1 among the highest grossing original (not part of any IP) movies in the country.
F1 Crushes Pre-Release Predictions Rather Comfortably
The global numbers of F1 through Friday have come and they are around USD 64.50 million. A global weekend pushing to USD 150 million is what is expected now. The opening weekend projections prior to the release were around USD 100 million and they shall be crushed rather comfortably, now.
The movie's high budget won't be easy to recover theatrically. But if F1 manages to cross USD 500 million globally by the end of its run, it will be seen as a good result if not great; especially given the pessimism in the trade because its release is right before giants like Jurassic World Rebirth and Superman.
F1's Numbers Show That Brad Pitt Still Has The Ability To Pull Audiences To Theatres
With F1, Brad Pitt has shown that he still has it in him as far as getting people to theatres is considered. The next movie the actor works on is a Netflix original. His next theatrical venture is waited for with bated breath.
F1 plays in theatres now. Stay tuned to Pinkvilla for more updates on F1 and Brad Pitt.

Since its international release on June 27, F1 has garnered widespread praise from both audiences and critics. Directed by Joseph Kosinski, best known for his work on Top Gun: Maverick, the film tells the story of Sonny Hayes, a veteran Formula One driver played by Brad, who makes a comeback to the sport after a 30-year hiatus. The movie is produced in collaboration with Formula 1 legend Lewis Hamilton, ensuring a high degree of authenticity in the racing world depicted on-screen. The excitement surrounding the movie reached new heights during its celebrity-packed premiere in London, which saw the presence of Tom Cruise. F1 has also received praise for its all-star ensemble cast, including Damson Idris, Kerry Condon, Javier Bardem, Tobias Menzies, Sarah Niles, and others.

The film's plot revolves around Sonny Hayes, who was once a talented and promising driver before a severe accident ended his career. Decades later, he is convinced to return to the sport by Cervantes, who seeks to revive his failing team. As Sonny works alongside the young and ambitious driver Joshua Pearce (Damson Idris), he must overcome his personal demons and confront the rapidly changing world of Formula 1. Produced by Jerry Bruckheimer and Lewis Hamilton, F1 also features a powerful soundtrack composed by Hans Zimmer, blending electronic and orchestral sounds to capture the high-octane nature of the sport.
