Avengers Endgame: Encore has generated significant buzz over the past few days driven by strong advance bookings, making an immediate impact at the Indian box office yesterday, September 25. As anticipated, the film delivered a stellar debut, pulling in over 7 crore net. This massive success marks the second-largest opening ever for any re-release in India and sets the record for the highest-grossing opening ever for a Hollywood re-release. Read on for the comprehensive collection breakdown!
For context, Encore is a special theatrical version of Marvel’s Avengers: Endgame that includes additional footage and an exclusive post-credits scene previewing Avengers: Doomsday. This special offering generated immense hype, which translated directly into robust pre-sales. Because the film is heavily front-loaded, it enjoyed a flying start on its opening day.
How much did Avengers Endgame: Encore earn at the Indian box office on day 1?
Playing across an impressive screen count of over 3,600 shows, Avengers Endgame: Encore brought in a net collection of 7.25 crore on its first day in India—an exceptional figure for a re-release. While the stellar pre-sales suggested a 10 crore net opening was possible, the film ultimately came in just below that mark. As expected, ticket sales were primarily propelled by advance bookings, with walk-in audiences remaining relatively modest.

Scores the 2nd-biggest re-release opening ever
With its 7.25 crore earnings, Avengers Endgame: Encore secured the second-highest opening day ever for a re-release in India. The all-time record continues to be held by Baahubali – The Epic at 10.8 crore, which combined remastered cuts of Baahubali – The Beginning and Baahubali 2 – The Conclusion into a single feature. Nevertheless, achieving this level of success for a Hollywood re-release highlights the remarkable strength of the Indian box office.

Encore secured robust advance bookings of approximately 5.5 crore gross for its second day, which should help fuel healthy growth. Looking ahead to the following day, pre-sales currently sit around 4.5 crore, pointing toward another strong performance. In total, the movie is projected to achieve a massive 3-day opening weekend net total of 22-24 crore across India.
