Sony’s “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” has become the highest-grossing Hollywood film in India, dethroning “Avatar: The Way of Water.”
A $10.6 million weekend boosted the “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” India total to $52.8 million, according to Sony.
The result was expected after “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” delivered a historic theatrical debut in India, dethroning “Avengers: Endgame” to claim the biggest opening frame for a non-Indian film in the country’s box office history.
Nationwide, the film’s four-day extended opening weekend produced a gross collection of $35.4 million, according to Sony, across 17,250 screens.
What has been particularly encouraging is not just the scale of the opening weekend, but the breadth of audience participation across markets.
