Mission Impossible The Final Reckoning advance booking: Tom Cruise's actioner expected to mint Rs 20 cr on opening day
Tom Cruise's much-awaited film Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning is all set to hit theatres on May 17, and two days before its release, it is already creating history at the box office. Despite releasing on a Saturday, which gives the film a smaller weekend in India, it is expected to make around Rs 15-20 crore on its opening day, as per a report by Pinkvilla. The report suggests that the film has sold over 50,000 tickets until Wednesday evening across the three top national chains – PVR, Inox and Cinepolis. The film is expected to sell around 1,50,000 tickets on the first day of its release in India and is projected to mint around Rs 20 crore. Compared to other films in the Mission Impossible franchise, The Final Reckoning is already shaping up to be a stronger performer. The last two instalments — Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part One and Mission Impossible: Fallout — had collected Rs 12.3 crore and Rs 9.50 crore, respectively, in India on their first day. Currently, Dead Reckoning Part One holds the record for the highest-earning Mission Impossible film in India, with a total of Rs 110.3 crore, according to Sacnilk. Mission Impossible: Fallout, on the other hand, raked in Rs 81 crore across the country. According to a press release shared by the film's team, Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning sold 11,000 tickets in the first 24 hours. 'Within just 24 hours of opening, the film sold over 11,000 tickets, signalling massive anticipation among fans. The action-thriller has already crossed over 45,000 tickets sold across India's top three national chains – PVR Inox and Cinépolis – underlining the franchise's phenomenal draw and the growing excitement ahead of release,' the statement read, as per a report by PTI. It is also worth noting that Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning is opening at the box office on a weekend – Saturday – and is poised to make the most of the holiday. The film will enjoy a solo run at the box office as no major Indian film stands in competition until the release of the Akshay Kumar-led multi-starrer Housefull 5 on June 5.
