According to industry buzz and pre-sales data, the film has already sold over 50,000 tickets across top chains two days ahead of release — a strong indication of its mammoth pull.

Here’s a look at the MI franchise’s Indian box office journey:

  • Dead Reckoning Part One (2023) – ₹120 crore
  • Fallout (2018) – ₹77 crore
  • Rogue Nation (2015) – ₹54 crore
  • Ghost Protocol (2011) – ₹46 crore
  • MI III (2006) – ₹10 crore
  • MI 2 (2000) – ₹7 crore
  • Mission: Impossible (1996) – ₹2 crore

Will It Happen?

With Cruise’s final performance, an emotionally charged farewell for fans, and limited competition from Bollywood until early June (Housefull 5 drops on June 6), the ₹150 crore mark is within realistic reach. However, the film will go head-to-head with other Hollywood releases like Final Destination: Bloodlines and Thunderbolts, making the first weekend critical.

Trade experts say if Mission: Impossible 8 earns ₹60–70 crore in its opening weekend and maintains good word-of-mouth, surpassing the ₹150 crore milestone will be a matter of “when,” not “if.”


Conclusion

For Tom Cruise, The Final Reckoning isn’t just a farewell—it could also mark his biggest-ever hit in India. With a legacy of explosive stunts, cinematic spectacle, and a loyal fan base, this mission seems more than possible.
