Scarlett Johansson
's Jurassic World: Rebirth has displayed formidable box office resilience in India, inching ever closer to the coveted Rs 100 crore mark. After roaring into cinemas with excitement and nostalgia backing it, the film has amassed an impressive Rs 94.65 crore in its first three weeks.
Now, after a steady Rs 4.09 crore addition over its fourth weekend, the film stands at a robust Rs 98.74 crore, just a breath away from a landmark figure.When that happens it will be the second Hollywood film to cross the Rs 100 crore mark this year, first being
Tom Cruise
's Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning.
What makes this performance particularly noteworthy is the stiff competition the film has faced in the past few days. For the past 10 days, the dino drama has been battling the unstoppable force of
Mohit Suri
's romantic drama Saiyaara, starring newcomers
Ahaan Panday
and
Aneet Padda
.
Saiyaara has turned out to be the surprise juggernaut of the season, racing past Rs 248 crore and dominating the Hindi box office with its fresh faces and youthful storytelling.
Despite Saiyaara's meteoric rise and its dominance across multiplexes, Jurassic World: Rebirth has continued to attract family audiences and franchise loyalists, holding its ground especially well in 3D and IMAX formats. Scarlett Johansson's entry into the dinosaur saga has proved to be a draw in itself, with her character bringing emotional depth and star power to a franchise looking to reinvent itself for a new generation.
Adding to the competitive box office environment was the arrival of the mythological animation action-drama Mahavatar Narsimha, which struck a chord with family audiences and amassed Rs 15.85 crore over its opening weekend.
Yet, Jurassic World: Rebirth has managed to weather the storm, thanks to strong word-of-mouth, family appeal, and visual spectacle that still holds allure for Indian audiences. Its steady pace through its fourth weekend suggests that the Rs 100 crore mark is all but assured, making it one of the rare Hollywood films in recent times to cross the milestone in India.
With no major Hollywood competitor arriving imminently and its run still stretching across major metros, the film is expected to cross Rs 100 crore by mid-week. In a year where most English-language films have struggled to make a dent amid strong local content, Rebirth has proven that dinosaurs still rule—slow, steady, and roaring with power.
