Christopher Nolan has done it again, and this time the surprise is how fast India has turned The Odyssey into a full-blown theatrical force. In just six days, the mythic spectacle has surged to ₹79.79 crore nett, putting a rare Hollywood century within touching distance and reaffirming Nolan’s extraordinary grip on premium-screen audiences across the country.
The day-wise run in exact terms: “#TheOdyssey Fri 16.07 cr, Sat 20.90 cr, Sun 19.84 cr, Mon 7.76 cr, Tue 8.33 cr, Wed 6.89 cr. Total: ₹ 79.79 cr.” Those figures tell the story of a film that did not simply open big, but kept drawing strongly once the weekend rush gave way to regular weekdays.
The Weekday Hold That Changed The Game
What makes the run especially impressive is the film’s grip after Sunday. The Odyssey opened with ₹16.07 crore on Friday, climbed to ₹20.90 crore on Saturday, and added ₹19.84 crore on Sunday before settling into steady weekday business. Tuesday’s ₹8.33 crore, in particular, stood out as a sign that audience interest remained firmly in place even after the initial surge. Film added 6.89 crore nett on Wednesday which is excellent trend.
Film has total of 79.79 crore nett nett (94.15 crore gross). Film will cross 100 crore gross India today and 100 crore nett on 2nd Saturday. Its almost certain to cross 130 crore nett lifetime in India though higher total looks tough due to onslaught of Spider – Man Brand New Day.

That consistency has now put the film on course for a huge first week in India. It also fits the wider pattern of Nolan’s global box office pull, with The Odyssey opening to an estimated $264.1 million worldwide, including $124.5 million domestically and $139.6 million overseas, making it Christopher Nolan’s biggest opening since The Dark Knight Rises.
The Big Screen Event Driving The Film’S Run
Released in theatres on July 17, 2026, The Odyssey is written and directed by Christopher Nolan and produced by Emma Thomas and Nolan for Syncopy. The official film site describes it as “a mythic action epic shot across the world using brand new IMAX® film technology.” It stars Matt Damon, Tom Holland, Anne Hathaway, Robert Pattinson and Lupita Nyong’o, with Zendaya and Charlize Theron also part of the ensemble.
The film adapts Homer’s foundational saga and follows Odysseus on his perilous journey home after the Trojan War, turning one of literature’s oldest tales into a modern event film built for the biggest possible screen. In India, that scale has translated into sustained business from key urban centres, where Hollywood tentpoles traditionally rely on premium formats and strong weekend retention. With weekday numbers holding at this level, The Odyssey has firmly established itself as one of the year’s biggest Hollywood success stories in the market.
