How much has Obsession earned at the box office?
Obsession has quietly become one of the biggest box office success stories of the year. The film first premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 5, 2025, as part of the Midnight Madness section before getting a theatrical release in the US on May 15, 2026, through Focus Features.
What makes its performance even more impressive is its budget. Made for just $750K (around Rs 6.20 crore), the film has gone on to earn an impressive $85 million (Rs 705.5 crore) worldwide, while also receiving positive reviews from critics.
The momentum doesn’t seem to be slowing down either. Weeks after its release, Obsession is still drawing audiences to theatres and hasn’t dipped below its opening weekend numbers. In fact, the film recorded a 10% increase this weekend, bringing in another $26.4 million (around Rs 219 crore) and finishing second at the box office.
The horror hit performed strongly enough to edge past Star Wars, the latest instalment in the iconic franchise from Walt Disney Studios, which collected $25 million and settled for third place.
