Captain America: Brave New World Box Office Collection India Day 1 – Marvel Film Struggles Against Chhaava

Marvel’s first 2025 release opens to lukewarm numbers as Vicky Kaushal’s Chhaava dominates the box office

February 15, 2025: Captain America: Brave New World Box Office Collection Day 1 (India)

Marvel Studios’ first big release of 2025, Captain America: Brave New World, has had an underwhelming start at the Indian box office. The film, which marks Anthony Mackie’s debut as the new Captain America, collected just ₹4.3 crore on its opening day in India, according to Sacnilk.

Despite Marvel’s strong fanbase in the country, the movie’s opening fell below expectations, significantly impacted by the massive hype around Vicky Kaushal’s historical epic Chhaava, which debuted with ₹31 crore on Day 1—the biggest opening of 2025 so far.

Why Did Brave New World Underperform in India?

  1. Strong Competition from Chhaava
    • Chhaava’s historical and patriotic appeal resonated deeply with Indian audiences, drawing large crowds.
  2. Lukewarm Word of Mouth
    • The film received mixed reviews, with many fans calling it a slow and uninspiring Captain America debut for Sam Wilson.
  3. Superhero Fatigue?
    • Marvel’s Phase Five movies have struggled post-Endgame. After Ant-Man 3 and The Marvels underperformed, audiences have grown skeptical about new MCU entries.
  4. Low Advance Bookings
    • Unlike previous Marvel releases like Avengers: Endgame or Spider-Man: No Way Home, Brave New World failed to generate strong pre-release buzz.

Is There Any Hope for a Weekend Boost?

Despite its weak opening, Brave New World still has a chance to recover over the weekend with strong word of mouth. However, with Chhaava dominating screens, it remains to be seen if Marvel’s latest installment can gain momentum or if it will continue to struggle in India.

With several big releases lined up, Brave New World will need a miracle turnaround to avoid being one of Marvel’s lowest-grossing films in India.

Will Captain America’s new era win over fans in the coming days, or will Chhaava’s box office storm continue to reign? Stay tuned for updates!
