No Dhurandhar Worry for This Hollywood Film at the Box Office?

The Hollywood film Project Hail Mary has emerged as a major breakout success in India, turning into a global phenomenon within just its extended opening weekend. Remarkably, the film has already surpassed the lifetime collections of all Hollywood releases of 2026 in the Indian market so far, despite facing strong competition from big-ticket films like Dhurandhar 2.

Starring Ryan Gosling, the film is riding high on exceptional word of mouth and overwhelmingly positive reviews from both critics and audiences. This strong reception has translated into impressive box office numbers across regions.

A major factor behind its performance has been Sony Pictures’ aggressive release strategy, which ensured a wide screen presence along with strong exhibitor backing. The film’s availability in English as well as local language versions has further boosted its reach.

With such strong early momentum, Project Hail Mary is expected to continue its successful run and set new benchmarks for Hollywood films in India this year, despite facing tough competition from Dhurandhar 2.
