Yesterday, Bollywood Hungama reported that The Odyssey continues to remain rock-solid at the box office despite the release of Spider-Man: Brand New Day. The Christopher Nolan-directed film has collected Rs. 166.89 crores in 24 days, of which a huge Rs. 74.21 crores has come from IMAX screens. The film, which released on July 17, has enjoyed exclusive access to IMAX shows ever since, thanks to its historic response. However, from Friday, August 14, The Odyssey will begin sharing IMAX shows with the Anne Hathaway-starrer, The End Of Oak Street.A trade source told Bollywood Hungama, “The End Of Oak Street is a big-scale film and also features dinosaurs. Hence, it’ll make for a great watch in IMAX. It is being released by Warner Bros, which also distributed Universal Pictures’ The Odyssey in India. Since the same team is handling both films, it has become easier to divide the shows between the two.”The source continued, “Warner Bros has asked IMAX theatres to play The End Of Oak Street in two prime slots, while the remaining three or four shows can be allotted to The Odyssey.”The source further said, “In normal screens, the distribution team has been very reasonable with its demands. Keeping in mind that two major Hindi films, Batwara 1947 and Awarapan 2, will also release on August 14, they have asked for just two shows in three-screen theatres and three shows in cinemas with four screens or more. Meanwhile, in IMAX and 4DX, they have asked for two shows.”Spider
