Hollywood's latest release Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw had a brilliant opening weekend as it minted Rs 42.90 crore in the first three days. The action entertainer starring Dwayne Johnson, Jason Statham, and Idris Elba in the lead hit the screens on Friday and collected Rs 13.13 crore, becoming the second-biggest Hollywood opener of the year after Avengers: Endgame. As expected, the film saw a big spike in its collection on Saturday and Sunday, however, it failed to hit the Rs 50 crore mark in the first weekend. On Monday, the figures weren't great as Hobbs & Shaw dropped around 50%. Hobbs & Shaw Box Office Collection Day 3: Dwayne Johnson's Latest Offering Packs a Solid Punch in the Opening Weekend, Mints Rs 42.90 Crore

According to BollywoodHungama, the spin-off of Fast & Furious raked in approximately Rs 6 crore on Monday, taking its total four-day collection to Rs 48.90 crore in India. Going by the film's performance on day 4, it seems the action flick is now out of the Rs 100 crore race.

We say so because by now Hobbs & Shaw should have ideally crossed the Rs 50 crore mark at the Indian box office. But that clearly hasn't happened and so it will be a struggle for the movie to enter the coveted club. Also, next Friday two big Bollywood films are set to arrive in cinema halls and that will definitely hamper the business of Hobbs & Shaw at the ticket windows. Hobbs & Shaw Box Office Collection Day 1: Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham's Action Flick Is the Second Highest Hollywood Opener of the Year, Mints Rs 13.15 Crore

Akshay Kumar's Mission Mangal co-starring Vidya Balan, Taapsee Pannu, Sonakshi Sinha, Kirti Kulhari and Nithya Menen is releasing on August 15 alongside John Abraham and Mrunal Thakur starrer Batla House. Since both the films have got a good pre-release buzz, it's very much likely that they will rule the box office during the big Independence Day weekend.
