India Box Office Performance
In India, F1 had a decent opening with ₹5.5 crore net on Day 1 and picked up pace over the weekend. By Day 4, it had earned ₹3.25 crore, bringing its total net collection in India to ₹24.65 crore and gross collection to ₹25.5 crore. The film has outperformed Kajol’s Maa and is now inching past Kannappa in domestic earnings.
Global Box Office Milestones
- North America: $55.6 million (₹4,760 crore)
- Rest of the World: Approx. $88.6 million (₹7,400 crore)
- Total Worldwide: $144.2 million (₹12.35 billion)
F1 also made headlines for crossing the $140 million global mark in its opening weekend alone. However, considering the film’s staggering ₹1,700 crore production budget, it still has a way to go before becoming a certified blockbuster.
About the Film

- Damson Idris

Verdict
