‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’ vs ‘Awarapan’
The film’s third-week slowdown comes as it faces fresh competition from the Bollywood film ‘Awarapan 2’, which arrived in theatres on Friday and recorded a strong opening. Emraan Hashmi’s return as Shivam Pandit has generated considerable audience interest, with the film recording an estimated Rs 21 crore net and around Rs 27 crore worldwide gross on its opening day, according to early estimates.The opening has also given Hashmi the biggest first-day collection of his career, surpassing the Rs 12.60 crore opening recorded by ‘Baadshaho’ in 2017.While ‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’ had dominated the first two weeks, the arrival of ‘Awarapan 2’ has introduced a strong new competitor, particularly in the Hindi-speaking markets.
‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’ enters third weekend
Despite the drop, Spider-Man: Brand New Day has built a substantial lead over its theatrical run, with more than Rs 447 crore net collected in India so far. The film is also the highest-grossing Hollywood movie in India, surpassing ‘Avatar’ and ‘Avengers’ to rake in over Rs 500 crore. If the film can get another boost over the weekend and score in double digits, it could take its lifetime box office collections past the Rs 600 crore mark.
