Yesterday, the highly–anticipated and widely–discussed Marvel hit movie, Thor: Love and Thunder, made its big–screen debut. Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman, Christian Bale, and Tessa Thompson, amongst others, played leading roles in the Taika Waititi–directed film which enjoyed a healthy rate of pre–release bookings, leading to an impressive opening.
As reported, Thor: Love and Thunder, which is the fourth film in the Thor franchise and the 29th movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, achieved a box office success of Rs. 18.60 crores on the opening day. This film has made it to the list of the five highest grossing opening day collections for a Hollywood film in India, standing next to previous Marvel films. These films include Avengers Endgame which grossed Rs. 53.10 cr, Spider-Man: No Way Home that collected Rs. 32.67 cr, Avengers: Infinity War with a collection of Rs. 31.30 cr, and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness earning Rs. 28.35 cr.
As Thor: Love And Thunder continues to be applauded by critics and fans alike, there are high expectations that its box office numbers will steadily increase. As Bollywood films currently being screened start to lose traction, the likelihood of a profitable opening weekend for the movie looks quite promising, with minimal competition in the coming weeks.
