Biggest weekend in India

Film analysts believe it will certainty record the biggest day for an animated film in India on Saturday and Sunday, difficult for a mid-week release.

The first part of the franchise, Into The Spider-Verse collected around Rs 9 crores nett in India on release. Across The Spider-Verse is expected to surpass that in 2 days flat. The Saturday and Sunday numbers can match the lifetime collections of the first installment.

Spider-Man is a very strong brand. While the live-action Spider-Man films have seen stupendous success since the early 2000s, the animated version is also not behind. India is not a big market for animated films but the collections of Across The Spider-Verse has been unprecedented.
