The Vin Diesel led action packed entertainer, Fast X has taken a good start at the box office in India. According to early estimates, Fast X has collected in the range of Rs 11.75 to 12.75 crores on its opening day. This is the second biggest start for the franchise in India after Fast and Furious 7, which holds the record for being the biggest non Marvel opener in India.
Fast X has taken a good start across the board with multiplexes leading from the front. The three national chains have contributed around 57 percent to the total collections, with non-nationals putting up a healthy business of 43 percent. Fast X is a franchise that has conventionally done well in the mass belts too and hence, the ratio is not very lopsided in favor of national chains.
Fast and Furious is among the most celebrated franchises in India from the West as the emotion is far more rooted and universal. The film rides on family emotions, which makes the film a lot more universal. The Hindi dubbed version of Fast X has performed exceptionally well and this speaks about the brand value of the franchise built over the years.
Fast X will target a four day weekend in the range of Rs 52 crore, and if the film holds well on Monday, it will hit a century at the box office in the long run. These numbers have come on a non holiday and that too a Thursday. A Friday release would have given a genuine push to the film to hit the Rs 15 crore mark on day one.
