Nobody saw this coming. While big-name releases have been battling it out at the Indian box office, Curry Barker’s Hollywood horror thriller *Obsession* has been doing something far more impressive — holding steady, week after week, with barely a dent in its numbers. The horror film starring **Michael Johnston** and **Inde Navarrette** has now crossed the **Rs. 76.75 crore mark** in just 17 days, and the Rs. 100 crore club is firmly in sight.

## What Makes Obsession Numbers So Special?

In an industry where most films lose 40–60% of their audience by Week 3, *Obsession* posted a jaw-dropping **just 15% drop** in its third weekend compared to its second. That’s not just good — that’s exceptional word-of-mouth at work.

The film remained the **top choice for audiences** this weekend despite multiple new releases competing for screens and eyeballs. That kind of staying power is rare for any film, let alone a mid-budget Hollywood horror thriller without a superhero or major franchise attached.

[Horror films](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horror_film) have historically performed in waves at the Indian box office, but *Obsession* seems to have broken that pattern entirely — building its audience organically through genuine scares and strong reviews.

## Where Is It Headed?

The projections are exciting. *Obsession* is expected to close its third week at around **Rs. 85 crore**, needing just Rs. 15 crore more in its fourth week to crack the coveted **Rs. 100 crore milestone** — a target that looks very achievable given its current trajectory.

More significantly, it is now on course to become the **No. 1 Hollywood grosser in India for 2026**, surpassing *Project Hail Mary* which had previously led the chart. That’s a massive statement for a horror film going up against sci-fi and action blockbusters.
