Tom Cruise’s ‘Digger’ Nets Only ₹1.5 Crore in India, 96% Drop from ‘Mission: Impossible 8’

The action thriller Digger, starring Tom Cruise, opened across India on a wide release schedule but struggled to attract audiences. In its first three days, the film grossed a modest ₹1.5 crore, according to box‑office reports. This figure represents a 96% drop from the opening weekend of Cruise’s previous film, Mission: Impossible 8, which earned over ₹60 crore in the same period. Industry analysts suggest that the lack of local marketing push and stiff competition from other releases may have contributed to the underwhelming performance. Distributors are now reassessing the film’s theatrical run, with some considering a shift to digital platforms to recoup losses.
