could The Odyssey Become July’s Biggest Opener?

The strong projections also put The Odyssey in contention to become the biggest opening release of July.

Earlier this month, Alia Bhatt’s Alpha opened with Rs 9.25 crore on its first day. Meanwhile, Dhamaal 4starring Ajay Devgn in the lead role, is also scheduled for release later this month and has generated considerable anticipation. Reports suggest that the comedy entertainer is expected to open at around Rs 15 crore.

Based on the current estimates, The Odyssey could comfortably surpass both films in terms of opening-day collections.
