Directed by Sam Raimi, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness debuted in India in English, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Malayalam. The film might just cross Spider-Man: No Way Home's lifetime business in India. In its first three days, the Tom Holland-starrer had made 79 crore at the Indian box office.

Spider-Man: No Way Home film was the first three films to cross the 200 crore mark in India during the pandemic. While it earned $1.69 billion at the global box office and became the highest-grossing film of all time, it came to a halt at 212 crore in India.

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness marks Dr Stephen Strange's fifth appearance in an MCU film. It shows Dr Strange travelling different universes to save a young girl from a villain who is after her superpowers. It also stars Elizabeth Olsen, Rachel McAdams, Xochitl Gomez, Benedict Wong and others.
