Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey has turned into a box office force, outperforming several early trade predictions with a sensational theatrical run. After a massive opening weekend, the epic has continued to hold remarkably well during the weekdays, taking its India total past the Rs.93.45 crore mark in just five days. The film is now comfortably heading towards the coveted ₹100 crore milestone, with trade expecting it to achieve the feat in no time.

The film has been equally dominant worldwide. The Odyssey has already grossed around $264 million (over ₹2,200 crore) globally in its opening weekend, making it Christopher Nolan's biggest worldwide opening ever. The movie held up strong on Monday and Tuesday across all markets taking the gross way above US$ 320 Million. Strong occupancy in IMAX screens, premium formats, and excellent word of mouth have ensured that the film has maintained momentum across major international markets as well as India.

Interestingly, the film's theatrical success comes despite persistent negativity surrounding its release on social media. Ever since the first shows, some users have continued to argue that the film has underperformed or label it a flop. However, the steady box office numbers are painting a very different picture. With collections remaining strong and weekday drops well under control, the audience response at the ticket windows has largely outweighed the online narrative.

For Nolan, The Odyssey has once again proved that event cinema still commands massive theatrical appeal. As the film inches towards ₹100 crore in India and continues its stellar global run, the numbers are becoming the strongest response to every debate surrounding its performance. If the current trend continues through the second weekend, The Odyssey could emerge as one of the biggest Hollywood blockbusters ever released in India.
