1️⃣ Mixed Reviews & Weak Word-of-Mouth – The film failed to generate the excitement that past MCU movies enjoyed.
2️⃣ Chris Evans’ Absence – Fans are still adjusting to Anthony Mackie’s Sam Wilson as the new Captain America.
3️⃣ Strong Competition – Bollywood’s ‘Chhaava’ (₹219.75 Cr in 7 days) has drawn major audience attention.
4️⃣ Franchise Fatigue – With recent Marvel films struggling, fans seem to be more selective about MCU outings.

🔹 How It Compares to Other MCU Films in India

  • Better than: ‘The Marvels’ (₹12.15 Cr in Week 1)
  • Worse than: ‘Doctor Strange: Multiverse of Madness’, ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’, and ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3’ (All crossed ₹100 Cr+)

With current trends, trade analysts predict the film may struggle to reach ₹30 crore in India. Globally, ‘Brave New World’ is projected to hit $450 million.
