Project Hail Mary, starring Ryan Gosling, is a space drama that was released in India on March 26. The Hollywood film was released globally on March 19. However, its India release was delayed by a week to avoid a direct clash with Aditya Dhar’s Dhurandhar 2, a box office juggernaut in the country.

Project Hail Mary dominates India's IMAX screens

Despite the delayed release, Project Hail Mary faced its share of challenges in India, as it was initially not allocated IMAX screens. The film has been specifically designed for IMAX viewing, and the lack of screens left fans frustrated. Following strong backlash online, all 34 IMAX screens in India began screening the film from March 27.
