Ryan Gosling’s Project Hail Mary continues its strong run at the Indian box office. On Day 4, the sci-fi blockbuster crossed ₹17.38 crore India gross, making it one of the strongest Hollywood performers of 2026 in India. Moreover, the film has now gone past the lifetime business of several Hollywood releases this year, showing its growing popularity among Indian audiences.
The movie, led by Ryan Gosling, is not only performing well in India but is also dominating the global box office with over $300 million worldwide.
Strong Day 4 Growth at the Indian Box Office
According to early box office reports, Project Hail Mary collected around ₹4.75 crore net on Day 4 (Sunday) in India. This took the total India gross collection to ₹17.38 crore.
The film showed excellent weekend growth:
- Day 1: ₹2.25 Cr
- Day 2: ₹2.90 Cr
- Day 3: ₹4.60 Cr
- Day 4: ₹4.75 Cr
This steady rise clearly shows strong audience interest, especially over the weekend.
Ryan Gosling’s Star Power Works Again
One of the biggest reasons behind the film’s success is Ryan Gosling’s popularity. His performance as Ryland Grace has received strong praise from fans and critics.
The emotional storyline, combined with a gripping space survival concept, has helped the movie attract both Hollywood fans and general audiences in India.
As a result, the movie is performing much better than many expected.
Surpasses Lifetime Business of 2026 Hollywood Releases
The biggest highlight is that Project Hail Mary has already surpassed the lifetime India collections of several Hollywood releases from 2026 within just four days.
This is a major achievement because competition from big Indian releases has been intense.
Despite limited screens in some regions, the film has managed to maintain strong occupancy.
Global Box Office Crosses $300 Million
While India collections are impressive, the global numbers are even bigger. The film has crossed $300 million worldwide, making it one of the top-grossing Hollywood films of 2026 so far.
This also makes it the biggest hit ever for Amazon MGM Studios.
