Michael Box Office Collections: Jaafar Jackson-led musical biopic jumps by 15 per cent on 3rd Tuesday, nears Rs 65 crore mark
Jaafar Jackson starrer Michael, directed by Antoine Fuqua, registered a 15 percent spike on 3rd Tuesday, taking the running cume to Rs. 63 crore gross.
Michael, starring Jaafar Jackson in the lead role, added Rs. 1.20 crore to the tally on its third Tuesday, taking the third week's cume to Rs. 11.25 crore in 5 days. The movie is heading to close this week, around Rs. 14 crore, which will take its running cume slightly over the Rs. 65 crore mark.
Directed by Antoine Fuqua, the musical biopic is heading to close its entire theatrical run around the Rs. 75 crore mark at the Indian box office. That will be a solid total for a biographical drama. With this sort of theatrical run, Michael will emerge as the second-highest-grossing Hollywood movie of 2026, after Project Hail Mary.
The movie has emerged as a HIT venture, marking the third HIT for Hollywood this year after Project Hail Mary and Lee Cronin’s The Mummy. Interestingly, all three have arrived within a short span of roughly a month. Even The Devil Wears Prada 2 is also performing well. While it may not emerge as a HIT, it is shaping up to be a success. What makes these results particularly impressive is that none of these films fits the conventional template of a Hollywood HIT in India, a market that is usually heavily IP-driven. There are some big films from big IPs slated for release later this year. 2026 could turn out to be a very strong year for Hollywood in India, especially if there are more unexpected successes and HITs along the way.
The Box Office Collections for Michael in India are as follows:
| Day | Gross |
|---|---|
| Week One | Rs. 31.25 cr. |
| Week Two | Rs. 20.50 |
| 3rd Friday | Rs. 1.75 cr. |
| 3rd Saturday | Rs. 3.50 cr. |
| 3rd Sunday | Rs. 3.75 cr. |
| 3rd Monday | Rs. 1.05 cr. |
| 3rd Tuesday | Rs. 1.20 cr. (est.) |
| Total | Rs. 63 cr. |
