After five years, Tom Cruise returned to the big screen as Ethan Hunt in the popular 'Mission Impossible' franchise's seventh installment, titled 'Mission: Impossible - Reckoning Part One.' On Wednesday, the movie achieved success in India, earning approximately $13 million. Despite its midweek release, the film generated enthusiasm among viewers, akin to a captivating read. According to sources, the film had a promising business on its opening day. In just one day, it earned an estimated 130 million rupees in India.

Three years ago, amidst great anticipation, the shooting for this highly anticipated film commenced. As per sources, the budget for 'Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One' was around $240 million, making it the most expensive film in the franchise to date. However, within this extravagant budget, one may wonder about Tom Cruise's earnings. Based on one source, Tom has earned a total remuneration of around $822 million from the previous six films of the 'Mission: Impossible' franchise. The remuneration he received for the seventh film is not far behind this figure. According to a source, he earned a paycheck of approximately $100 to $115 million from this film alone. But the story doesn't end here.

Tom Cruise is one of the major contributors to the film's success, and as a result, he will also receive a share of the film's profits. Just one day after its release in India, on Thursday, the film generated a business of approximately $9.5 million. The pre-sale statistics for movie tickets during the weekend are also quite promising. However, next week, Hollywood's another highly anticipated film, directed by Christopher Nolan and titled 'Oppenheimer,' will be released. Many believe that it will have an impact on the business of 'Mission: Impossible - Reckoning Part One.'
