'Thor: Love and Thunder' box office collection Day 1: Chris Hemsworth movie had a good first day.
The latest film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Chris Hemsworth and Natalie Portman's 'Thor: Love and Thunder', started off well in India. The Taika Waititi directorialgrossed Rs 18.60 on the first day of its theatrical journey.The film also stars Christian Bale, Tessa Thompson, Jaimie Alexander, Waititi, and Russell Crowe. Globally, the film is set to have a massive $300 million opening. The movie was released with high expectations as the God of Thunder is currently the most popular superhero in MCUthanks to Hemsworth and Waititi. After the departure ofTony Stark and Chris Evans, Thor is easily the most well-known MCU character left.Waititi proved his mettle with 2017's 'Thor: Ragnarok' and thus fans were hankering to see his take on the God of Thunder again.

The last 'Thor' movie, titled 'Thor: Ragnarok' and also directed by Waititi, had opened with Rs 8 crore, so Rs 20 crore would be a big upgrade. The 29th MCU film, 'Ragnarok' pits two Thors, one the classic Odinson, and the other Mighty Thor that Portman's Jane Foster becomes, against the god-killing force of nature Gorr the God Butcher played by Oscar-winning English actor Christian Bale.
He was wronged by the gods, who did not come to his rescue as his family and people died. In the prologue, we see him cradling his dying little daughter. He finds his god living a plentiful life. He acquires the Necrosword that can kill any god, and vows to rid the universe of every divine presence.
Wion's review of 'Love and Thunder' read, "['Love and Thunder'] cannot recreate the magic that we saw playing out in the preceding film. The trouble, I feel, is that the film is missing that immaculate cocktail of intelligent, humour-laced writing and carefully crafted set pieces that made 'Ragnarok' one of the best MCU entries."
