Overview
- The Odyssey held a two-day India premiere in Mumbai on July 10–11 with Christopher Nolan, producers Emma Thomas, Matt Damon and Tom Holland appearing at press events and screenings.
- India's Central Board of Film Certification reportedly granted the film an 'A' certificate with a listed runtime of about 172 minutes and no cuts recorded on the certificate.
- The production and marketing emphasize that the film was shot entirely on newly developed IMAX 70mm cameras and the studio is pushing large-format viewing as the primary audience experience.
- Advance IMAX ticket sales in major Indian cities sold out in key venues and drove premium pricing, with reported top fares around Rs 3,100 in Mumbai and high-demand early bookings.
- Nolan's longstanding ties to India and the high-profile Mumbai stop underscore Hollywood's growing focus on the Indian theatrical market and set the stage for what to watch when the film opens worldwide on July 17.
