The movie’s net total is Rs 156 crore while the gross stands at an astounding Rs 200 crore. The last Hollywood film to achieve this milestone was Jungle Book in 2016, which Infinity War is almost certainly going to cross in the next few days.

According to a statement by online ticketing site, BookMyShow, 3.5 million tickets have been sold for the film.

Internationally, the film is expected to cross the $1 billion mark in record time. The film’s current worldwide total stands at $857 million - and this without the lucrative China market, where the film will be released on May 11. China is the world’s second largest film market, and will likely contribute a significant number to Infinity War’s total.
