UNITED STATES: Thor: Love and Thunder debuted with a bang, delivering an enthralling blend of romance and humour that contributed to a strong box office success. The film has attracted a lot of curiosity since the teaser debuted, most of which can be ascribed to Gorr the God butcher’s involvement. Academy Award winner Taika Waititi’s directorial expands on the Space Viking’s quest after a successful start at the box office.
Thor 4 witnessed a huge drop at the box office on its first Monday
The Space Viking Saga collected ₹5.25 crores on its first Monday leading to a significant decline at the box office after a solid start on the weekend. Again, The Chris Hemsworth Starrer witnessed a massive drop on Tuesday, with a collection of roughly ₹4.5 crores. Thor 4 now stands with total estimated revenue of ₹74 crores at the box office.
As per BoxOfficeIndia.com, on its first day of release, the Chris Hemsworth starrer film performed decently at the box office on a non-holiday basis. Thor: Love and Thunder, which opened on July 7, had a 40–50% occupancy rate.
Box Office India states that the Chris Hemsworth-starring movie struggles to generate profits compared to Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. The second instalment of the Master of Mystics Arts made almost ₹30 crores in India on its opening day and ₹120 crores in less than two weeks.
The success of Doctor Strange 2 at the box office was greatly influenced by Spider-Man: No Way Home. The movie had Doctor Strange as its main character, and the finale also featured the trailer, which raised the bar. The Thor fandom, however, has a vast gap since the character’s previous appearance in Avengers: End Game.
