Nobody quite saw this coming. Lee Cronin’s The Mummy — a fresh reimagining of the iconic horror franchise — has been steadily carving out a respectable space at the Indian box office, and its two-week numbers make for genuinely impressive reading.
After 14 days of theatrical run, the film has crossed ₹29 crore gross in India, adding approximately ₹12 crore in its second week alone. On Day 14 (2nd Thursday), it collected around ₹90 lakh, witnessing a modest ~10% dip from Wednesday and a healthy 44% drop from its first Thursday — signalling solid audience retention for a mid-scale Hollywood horror release.

The Tamil Nadu Story — A Surprise Super Hit
Perhaps the most fascinating subplot of this film’s India journey is what happened in Tamil Nadu. The horror genre has always had a passionate fanbase in the South, and The Mummy tapped right into it — grossing around ₹10 crore from Tamil Nadu alone, earning itself a well-deserved Super Hit verdict in that market. That’s nearly a third of its entire national gross coming from a single state, which tells you everything about how deeply this film resonated with Southern audiences.
What Lies Ahead for The Mummy’s India Run?
With The Devil Wears Prada 2 now releasing this weekend, The Mummy will inevitably see a screen count reduction and slower momentum going into Week 3. However, with the right hold, its projected full theatrical run is between ₹35 crore to ₹40 crore gross — a respectable and profitable figure for an adult-skewing Hollywood horror film in India.
It’s worth noting the legacy this title carries. The original The Mummy franchise left a massive footprint in India — the 1999 film grossed ~₹20 crore, rising to ~₹27 crore in 2001 and a whopping ~₹48 crore in 2008, all of which adjust to well over ₹200 crore in today’s money. While Lee Cronin’s version is an entirely separate story, the familiar name almost certainly aided initial audience curiosity. This film now joins Project Hail Mary as the second Hollywood Hit of 2026 in India, with Michael set to become the third.
