Fast X Has Relatively Performed Better In India Than In Most Countries
A Rs 100 crore nett in India makes Fast X an easy Hit. In its lifetime, the total number will be around Rs 110 - Rs 115 crores nett.

Fast X's High Budget Has Played A Spoil Sport
Fast X is budgeted at around 340 million dollars excluding the printing and advertisement expenses, and the global takings of the film are expected to be in the vicinity of 750 million dollars by the end of its run. These numbers are not too appealing given how the franchise has fared over the years and also its budget to recovery ratio. The non-theatrical rights of the film may ensure that the film remains solvent but a franchise like Fast X can't keep depending on them time and again.
