The Indian box office is witnessing one of the most exciting Hollywood face-offs of 2025 as two blockbuster franchises go head-to-head. While Scarlett Johansson’s dinosaur spectacle “Jurassic World Rebirth” roars into theaters with massive global success, Brad Pitt’s adrenaline-pumping “F1” continues to maintain its stronghold in the Indian market. The 8-day comparison reveals a fascinating tale of two very different audience preferences.

The Numbers Game: A Close Competition

In comparison, F1 had opened with Rs 5.50 crore and wrapped its first weekend at Rs 20.75 crore net in India. However, the Dinosaur movie started crumbling on the weekdays while the Brad Pitt starrer held strong foot. This pattern reveals the distinct viewing habits of Indian audiences when it comes to Hollywood blockbusters.

The race between these two titans has been nothing short of thrilling. Brad Pitt starrer began its box office journey on a good note, garnering 5.5 crores on its opening day in India. The first week concluded with earnings of 53.2 crore. Meanwhile, Jurassic World: Rebirth is competing against Brad Pitt starrer F1: The Movie, which is running in its second week now (released on June 27) and is already past the ₹50 crore mark in India.

Global Domination: Jurassic World Rebirth’s Worldwide Success

While the India battle remains close, Jurassic World Rebirth has been dominating globally. Jurassic World Rebirth has opened to $318.3M at the global box office, the biggest worldwide opening of the year to date for a Hollywood movie. The film’s performance has been even more impressive with Universal/Amblin’s Jurassic World Rebirth to a higher worldwide opening than previously reported, that being $322.5M worldwide (instead of $318M+) with $147.8M over domestic 5-days and $174.7M foreign take.

The Weekday Test: Where F1 Shines

The real test for any Hollywood film in India comes during the weekdays, and this is where F1 has shown its strength. If we compare 2nd Friday collections of both the movies, F1 emerged as a winner, demonstrating the film’s ability to maintain audience interest beyond the opening weekend surge.

The Indian Box Office Landscape

This global success, combined with its strong Indian performance, positions F1 as a formidable competitor.

Industry Impact and Future Projections

The success of both films highlights the evolving preferences of Indian audiences. While franchise films like Jurassic World traditionally dominate opening weekends, original content with strong storytelling like F1 proves its mettle through sustained performance.

This will bring its cumulative domestic total to roughly $109 million, making it the 9th movie of the year to pass the $100 million domestic milestone. Additionally, this total will make F1 The Movie Brad Pitt’s 12th highest-grossing domestic release of all time.

The Verdict: A Win-Win for Hollywood
