Spider-Man: No Way Home continues to draw in crowds across India, scoring a new record for fastest hundred million dollar release in Indian box offices. One of only five other movies from Hollywood that have achieved this milestone, Spider-Man has earned Rs. 108.37 crores (just over $14 million) within just eight days of being released and has grossed an additional Rs. 29.23 crores (about $4 million) on the weekend for a total of about $18 million dollars globally so far.
In 2021, only a handful of films had managed to break the 100 crore threshold and were successful enough enough to keep going. Starting with South’s release of Master and Vakeel Saab and continuing with Sooryavanshi that was still running when this article was written but would eventually come up short of crossing Rs. 200 crores mark.
Finally, Annatthe too managed to break the 100 crore barrier though it quickly faded from public memory afterwards; however Spider-Man: No Way Home brought back the thrill by breathing new life into the film industry which started off strong again! With yet another blockbuster hit under its belt, one can’t help but wonder if this film will surpass the coveted Rs.200 cr benchmark or not?
