Project Hail Mary box office collection day 4: Ryan Gosling film sees growth in India, mints Rs 2,837 crore worldwide

The conversation around Project Hail Mary getting fewer screens because of Dhurandhar 2 has been a major talking point, and over time, the number of shows for the film has increased. For instance, on Thursday—the day of its debut in India—it had 1,324 shows, which rose to 1,634 in the following days.

The film had also initially struggled to secure prime IMAX slots, which sparked a wave of reactions online, with fans demanding more shows. On its release day, the film had only 13 IMAX shows in India, but due to audience demand, screenings began increasing from March 27. India currently has 34 IMAX screens, according to Mid Day.

Project Hail Mary worldwide collection

The Ryan Gosling-starrer, which released a week earlier overseas, has crossed $300 million worldwide (Rs 2,837 crore) in just 10 days, establishing itself as one of the biggest theatrical successes of the year so far.

Directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, Project Hail Mary also stars Sandra Hüller, James Ortiz, and Lionel Boyce in pivotal roles. Speaking about the film, Gosling said, “It’s an insanely ambitious story that’s massive in scope, and it seemed really hard to make, and that’s kind of our bag.” He added, “This is why we go to the movies. And I’m not just saying it because I’m in it—I’m also saying it because I’m a producer on the film.”
