After Avengers Endgame, it looks like Indian fans have found another love in 2019 for a Hollywood movie. This would be none other than Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham starrer Fast & Furious: Hobbs & Shaw which released last week on Friday. As the name suggests, the movie has already outrun The Lion King as best box office opener so far in 2019. Although the highest box office opener throne still belongs to Marvel’s Avenger Endgame but Fast & Furious: Hobbs & Shaw now takes the second spot in terms of highest box office Hollywood movie opener in India. The top five list is followed by Captain Marvel, The Lion King and Spider Man: Far From Home at remaining third, fourth and fifth spot. Critics have been very optimistic about this movie and good ratings were added in their feather.
