'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' box office collection day 3: Tom Holland starrer crosses Rs 180 cr in India
Mumbai, August 2
It looks like Tom Holland-starrer 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' is showing no signs of slowing down at the Indian box office.
The Marvel film continued its dream run on Saturday, with collections going past its opening-day numbers, making it one of the biggest Hollywood releases ever in India.
According to trade analyst Taran Adarsh, the film earned Rs 61 crore on Thursday, followed by Rs 48.30 crore on Friday and a massive Rs 70.80 crore on Saturday, taking its three-day India net total to Rs 180.10 crore across all versions.
The strong jump in Saturday's collections after an already record-breaking opening has further strengthened the film's box office run. Going by the current trend, Sunday is expected to be the biggest day of the extended weekend.
According to Adarsh, the sci-fi is also set to cross the Rs 260.40 crore first-week collection of 'Avengers: Endgame' on Monday, its fifth day, creating another record for a Hollywood film in India.
With an estimated Rs 240 crore-plus collection over the extended four-day weekend, the Tom Holland starrer is expected to register the biggest opening weekend ever for a Hollywood film in India, according to Adarsh.
Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, the film features Tom Holland, Zendaya, Sadie Sink, Jacob Batalon, Jon Bernthal, Tramell Tillman, Michael Mando, and Mark Ruffalo.
Holland first appeared as Peter Parker in 2016's 'Captain America: Civil War', marking his debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
He later headlined 'Spider-Man: Homecoming' alongside Robert Downey Jr. and reprised the role in 'Avengers: Infinity War', 'Avengers: Endgame', 'Spider-Man: Far From Home', a cameo in 'Venom: Let There Be Carnage', and 'Spider-Man: No Way Home'.

Finally a Spider-Man movie that feels fresh after No Way Home. Saw it in IMAX yesterday and the crowd was cheering throughout. The marketing team did a great job building hype in India. Sunday collections are going to be massive!
The weekend boost is no surprise—Saturday and Sunday are always family days at the theatres. But Rs 70.80 crore on a single day? That's insane. Hollywood films are truly becoming pan-India hits now, especially with dubbed versions.
Happy to see Marvel back on track. But I hope they don't overdo the multiverse stuff again. The first half felt a bit slow to me, but the action sequences were top-notch. Zendaya and Holland's chemistry is always a plus. 🙌
It's great that Indian audiences are embracing Hollywood films so much. But I wonder—why don't our Bollywood films get this kind of love anymore? Anyway, happy for Tom Holland and the team. Might go for a second viewing with my cousins!
As a Marvel fan from the beginning, I'm thrilled. But honestly, the ticket prices are getting too high in multiplexes. Rs 500+ for a 3D show is steep for many. Still, the film deserves the numbers—it's a great entertainer for all ages.
