Spider-Man: Brand New Day receives U/A 13+ certificate
The film has received a U/A 13+ certificate from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). According to a report by Bollywood Hungama, the CBFC asked the makers to mute or remove several allegedly obscene words from the audio and subtitles at three places. The board also reportedly instructed the makers to delete an eight-second lip-lock sequence. Following the modifications, Spider-Man: Brand New Day was certified with a runtime of two hours and 24 minutes.
The latest instalment picks up after the events of Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021), which ended with Peter Parker’s identity being erased from the memories of the entire world following Doctor Strange’s spell. Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, the film marks Tom Holland’s return as the beloved Marvel superhero alongside Zendaya and Jacob Batalon.
The Spider-Man franchise enjoys immense popularity in India, thanks in large part to the phenomenal success of Spider-Man: No Way Home. Released in 2021, the film grossed Rs 271 crore in India, making it one of the country’s highest-grossing Hollywood releases. Globally, the blockbuster earned around $1.91 billion, cementing its place among the most successful films in the Spider-Man franchise.
