Domestic Cinema Collection: 'Metro in Dino' Underperforms Compared to 'Jurassic World Rebirth'
In a thrilling turn of events, Gareth Edwards' Jurassic World Rebirth has emerged as the clear winner at the Indian box office, leaving its competitors Metro In Dino and Sardaarji 3 in its wake.
Jurassic World Rebirth, the fourth installment in the Jurassic World franchise and a standalone sequel to Jurassic World Dominion (2022), made a decent start in the Indian markets, earning a little above $500,000. However, the collections saw a sharp rise over the weekend, closing the first weekend above $5 million at the Indian box office. The film, featuring Mahershala Ali, Scarlet Johansson, and Jonathan Bailey, grossed an impressive $5.8 million in the India markets alone.
The film is expected to cross the ₹50 crore mark in India by the end of its first week. It collected ₹4.39 crore on its sixth day, following a ₹4.1 crore collection on its first Monday.
Meanwhile, Metro In Dino, directed by Anurag Basu, had a modest start, but specific box office figures are not available. The film explores the frailties of human relationships in the current age of fast life and the consequent loneliness, featuring a star-studded cast including Konkona Sen Sharma, Pankaj Tripathi, Neena Gupta, Anupam Kher, Ali Fazal, Aditya Roy Kapur, Sara Ali Khan, and Fatima Sana Shaikh.
Sardaarji 3, a Punjabi film, grossed $2.7 million in the second weekend in the US markets, ranking among the top-scoring films in its second weekend at the box office. However, Diljit Dosanjh's Sardaarji 3 failed to get a theatrical release in India due to controversies surrounding the involvement of Pakistani actor Hania Aamir. The film was made on an estimated budget of $4 million and grossed more than $6 million worldwide by the tenth day.
On a global scale, Jurassic World Rebirth has collected $322.5 million worldwide, including $147.8 million in the US and $174.7 million internationally. The film performed particularly well in China, with significant earnings after its release.
