Mumbai: Universal’s ‘Jurassic World Dominion,’ sixth film in the dino-saga is looming large at the domestic box office. Released on June 10, Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard starrer opened well across India. There’s no denying the fact that Jurassic World: Dominion is from one of the most lucrative Hollywood franchises ever made. Spanning over three decades, it has to cater to an audience that has been with the series for so long, in addition to the new set of audience that joined them. Colin Trevorrow directs the new installment. The plot continues from the previous two films, Jurassic World (2015) and Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (2018).
According to Box Office India, “the Hollywood film Jurassic World Dominion opened well across India and is likely to be the highest opening ever for the franchise and beat the opening day numbers of Jurassic World in 2015. This franchise is not the one to take huge openings but the last two films have scored huge numbers through long runs.”
“A double digit number on day one may be a step too far but the film could get an 8 crore nett plus number up which would be enough for the film to be the highest for the franchise. The Jurassic Park franchise is where the dubbing of Hollywood films took off in 1994 as that film did huge business at that time.
Jurassic World Dominion had paid previews on Thursday which also did well with collections looking to be around 3.75 crore nett plus and these collections came only after 4pm as that was when shows started. The film will also score well on Saturday and Sunday,” BO added.
