Christopher Nolan strikes gold again — and this time in India. **The Odyssey**, starring Matt Damon, is standing right at the doorstep of the coveted Rs 100 crore club, and the momentum shows no signs of slowing down.

The film collected Rs 8.75 crore on its first Wednesday, pushing its running total to Rs 98 crore. With another Rs 7-8 crore expected by Thursday, the film should comfortably cross the Rs 105 crore mark — a rare feat for a period drama, a genre that has historically struggled at the Indian box office.

## The Odyssey: Beating Oppenheimer’s Pace

What makes this run special is the comparison to Nolan’s own record. The Odyssey’s Wednesday numbers came in 35% higher than Oppenheimer’s equivalent day, a film that eventually became a landmark release for the director in India. If this trend holds, trade watchers believe the film has a real shot at crossing Rs 200 crore domestically.

Much of this is riding on Nolan’s brand value. Over the last decade, the filmmaker has built a reputation among Indian audiences as shorthand for “great cinema,” and his recent releases — including the re-release of [Interstellar](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interstellar_(film)) — have consistently pulled crowds regardless of genre.

Period dramas rarely dominate Indian screens, making this an unusual box office story worth watching closely in the coming days.
