Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey posted a strong start at the Indian box office on its opening day. The live collection trend showed the film at Rs 8.51 crore by 6:30 PM, and it later closed day 1 with Rs 17.40 crore net and Rs 20.76 crore gross in India.
The English version emerged as the clear driver of the film's opening business. According to the reported figures, it recorded 77% occupancy across 4,401 shows nationwide, giving the film a solid foundation on day one.
The Odyssey is being presented as an epic fantasy action film inspired by Homer's ancient Greek classic. Nolan's adaptation revisits one of the most enduring stories in world literature, and the opening-day response suggests strong audience curiosity around the filmmaker's take on the material.
With the English version leading collections and the overall first-day total ending on a healthy note, the film has begun its theatrical run in India on a positive footing. Much of the attention will now be on whether it can maintain momentum over the weekend.
