Mumbai, July 24 - The Rise of Hollywood films in India has been exceptional over the last few years where English films are consistently performing well at the box office. In the first half of 2023, there have been at least, 3 films (outside Marvel and DC) which have emerged as big hits, and now, things went a notch higher in the first month of the second half, July.

In July, three of the biggest Hollywood films of the year were released in the form of "Mission Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One", "Oppenheimer", and "Barbie" and all three have emerged as super successes. It began with Tom Cruise's "MI7" which is nearing 100 crores net (already crossed 100 crores gross), and the momentum continued with "Barbenheimer" mania, which literally has set the box office on fire. This past weekend (July 21-23), "Oppenheimer", "Barbie" and "MI7" scored an estimated $11.5 million (95 crores) in what is one of the biggest all-time single weekends for Hollywood movies in India.



Oppenheimer - Maverick director Christopher Nolan's atom bomb movie has had an excellent opening weekend and is the biggest for the filmmaker in India. After taking the biggest Hollywood opening of 17.50 crores ($2.1M) of the year here, "Oppenheimer" concluded the 3-day weekend on high with 58 crores gross ($7 million), and it will become the biggest film of Nolan in India by the end of its 4th day. India was the second-biggest international market for the film that otherwise was second to "Barbie" in almost all the markets.

Barbie - The Margot Robbie-led fantasy comedy movie got the benefit of the Barbenheimer phenomena in India at least and smiled with a $2.7 million (22 crores) 3-day opening weekend. The movie has had a limited release in only the English version and has done very well at the box office. The Warner Bros. Pictures' film is set to emerge as a clean hit in India.

Mission Impossible 7 - The Tom Cruise-starrer got impacted by "Oppenheimer" on the second weekend but still did well to score $1.7 million (14 crores) in its second Friday to Sunday weekend. The movie's total collection after 12 days is approx. 110 crores ($13.4M), making it the highest-grossing film as well as the first 100 crores grosser film of Cruise in India.
