Tom Holland’s Spider-Man: Brand New Day Soars to ₹80 Crore in India Presales, Eyes Record-Breaking Advance Booking
Hold onto your web-shooters, folks! Spider-Man: Brand New Day is swinging toward a historic milestone in the world of Hollywood blockbusters. By Wednesday morning, this Tom Holland-led adventure has already spun an impressive ₹80 crore (USD 8.50 million, ₹66 crore nett) in advance sales for its thrilling four-day extended opening weekend.
The excitement is palpable, with a jaw-dropping ₹31 crore already secured for the first day’s screenings alone. And if that wasn’t enough to make your spidey senses tingle, the following three days added an exhilarating ₹49 crore to the tally.
Just when the all-time record seemed like a close chase, Brand New Day took a spectacular leap, raking in almost ₹15 crore more in just one day. Today promises to be even bigger, potentially catapulting past the revered benchmarks set by Avengers: Endgame.
Chasing Endgame’s Legacy
While the precise figures for Endgame remain a mystery, estimates suggest it pulled in around ₹90 crore in advance sales. Over the past seven years, no contender has come close to this behemoth, with the next best effort not even reaching the halfway mark. Now, Spider-Man is not only poised to leap beyond this, but it just might shatter the ₹100 crore advance record.
The stage is set for Brand New Day to also claim the opening day crown, snatching it from Endgame, which grossed ₹65 crore (₹53.50 crore nett) back in 2019. However, much hinges on the walk-up crowds that will flock to the cinemas. Should the momentum continue, the opening weekend is expected to soar well beyond ₹200 crore, with estimates hinting at a possible ₹250 crore finish.
With figures like these, Tom Holland’s Spider-Man is not just swinging through the city but is on a record-breaking web-slinging spree!
