The collections dropped significantly on Monday and Tuesday, with Day 3 (Monday) bringing in 5.50 crore and Day 4 (Tuesday) at 5.25 crore. This takes the film's total to 44.25 crore net in four days.

Unless the second weekend sees a major turnaround, Mission Impossible 8 may struggle to reach even 80 crores in lifetime business, which would be a big fall from the 120 crores net that Mission Impossible 7 earned in India.

Coolie Shock To War 2 In Telugu States?

Audience expectations were sky-high after the previous installment set the stage for a thrilling finale. But instead of high-octane action and suspense, what viewers got was a slow-moving, talk-heavy film.

Many found it to be the weakest entry in the franchise. Critics and audiences pointed out the following issues:

Disha Blasts Kiara's Bikini Hype from WAR 2

. Excessive dialogue with minimal action
. Characters explaining everything directly to the audience instead of interacting naturally
. A slow and dragged-out ocean sequence in the second half
. A lackluster climax that lacked tension or payoff
. Surprisingly, the iconic Mission Impossible theme is mostly missing from key sequences
. Tom Cruise's performance also drew mixed reactions. This time he seemed tired, and the spark that defined Ethan Hunt was missing. Many felt he was far better in Top Gun: Maverick.

These reasons made sure, MI 8 didn't live up to the box office expectations.

In contrast, Final Destination: Bloodlines (Final Destination 6) is showing strong hold at the box office. The horror-thriller has recorded a solid trend, with collections nearing 27.50 crore in six days.

It has already become the highest-grossing film of the franchise in India and continues to perform well, especially in metro cities and night shows.

While Tom Cruise's high-octane action film is facing a tough road ahead, Final Destination: Bloodlines is emerging as the surprise success among Hollywood releases this season.
