Dr Strange - In The Multiverse Of Madness took a fantastic 55-60% opening on average across India. This is huge occupancy considering its a non holiday. The occupancy is a little short of the last Hollywood blockbuster Spiderman - No Way Home but it has higher ticket rates than Spiderman - Now Way Home which can cover the shortfall.
The advances were also very much similar to Spiderman - No Way Home with collections being same while admits were a little less. The film should be able to hit the 30 crore nett mark on day one but the Spiderman - No Way Home number will depend on how the film fares in the languages as these versions depend more how collections move on the day rather than the advance.
Also Spiderman is a far more known superhero than Dr Strange in India and that could mean this film may not be as strong as Spiderman - No Way Home in the mass circuits. At the time of Spiderman - No Way Home release there were restrictions due to covid19 especially in Maharashtra so here Dr Strange has chances to score better here on the first day.
Spidrman - No Way Home also had a huge out performance in South with insane collections in all southern circuits and its quite likely Dr Strange will do the same but not to the level of Spiderman - No Way Home which may mean that some of the Hindi circuits go over Spiderman - No Way Home even if the all India number does not.
Wherever the final number land ups, the film is going to be a huge success in India thanks to this huge opening.
