Spiderman - No Way Home is set to emerge the first true BLOCKBUSTER film in India post the pandemic as it holds very steady on Monday. The South India markets are holding up very strongly while the drops are more in Hindi markets they also doing very well.

The film saw a huge drop in Nizam / Andhra on Friday after a record Thursday and on Monday the drop is minimal from Friday and its a very strong trend in other South India circuits. Mumbai and Delhi / UP are heading for 40% drops but that is also very good. The Monday collections of the film may well come in the 13-14 crore nett range.

There have been films that done big numbers post the pandemic but none of these films were BLOCKBUSTERS and Spiderman - No Way Home looks like emerging like the first real one. Sooryavanshi which is the top grosser at the moment was a BLOCKBUSTER in Mumbai but was a HIT film overall. Early on the year  there were films like Master and Vakeel Saab which grossed well but the former just about met their local market expectations while the latter did not even do that. Now there is Pushpa and that seems to be a BLOCKBUSTER in one side of its local market but not the other. There may be smaller films in some places which may have done very well but a true BLOCKBUSTER is always a grosser.

There are various reasons for that like Covid19, restrictions and even ticket pricing for Pushpa and Sooryavanshi starting with an unbalanced market but eventually one film comes through and India its Spiderman - No Way Home.  The way the film is going it will provide competition to 83 on Saturday and Sunday for sure as the families will return.
