The horror thriller Obsession continues to perform steadily at the Indian box office, maintaining audience interest even during the weekday period. Despite not featuring major star names and facing competition from other releases, the film has managed to attract viewers through positive word of mouth and strong discussions on social media.
According to industry estimates, Obsession collected ₹2.51 crore on its sixth day in Indian theatres. While the figure is lower than the ₹3 crore earned on Tuesday, the decline remains limited, indicating that the film is holding up well during the working week. Such stability is often seen as a positive sign for a film’s long term performance.
The movie recorded its best single day collection on Sunday, when it earned ₹3.25 crore. With the latest numbers included, the film’s total India net collection has reached ₹15.26 crore. Its domestic gross collection currently stands at ₹18.12 crore, reflecting a solid performance for a film that arrived without the backing of a major star cast.
Directed by Curry Barker, Obsession has also achieved remarkable success internationally. Produced on a reported budget of $750,000, the film has gone on to earn more than $148 million worldwide. This makes it one of the most profitable horror films released in recent years and one of the biggest surprise success stories of the year.
The film’s story centers on a lonely music store employee named Bear. Hoping to win the affection of his longtime crush Nikki, he uses a mysterious object that grants wishes. However, things quickly take a dark turn when his desire for love transforms into a dangerous and frightening obsession. The unusual storyline and psychological horror elements have helped the film connect with audiences across different markets.
Obsession has also generated attention among celebrities. After watching the film, actress Ananya Panday shared her reaction on social media. She stated that she could not stop thinking about the movie and described herself as being “obsessed” with it.
The film was released in Indian cinemas on May 29 following its earlier release in the United States. Since then, it has continued to attract moviegoers and maintain steady collections. With positive audience feedback and ongoing interest, Obsession remains one of the most talked about horror films currently playing in theatres and shows no immediate signs of slowing down at the box office.
