The name's Bond, James Bond; Spectre is India's biggest Bond opener yet

Daniel Craig's Spectre released in India on 20 November. The film has recorded the highest opening weekend for a Bond Film in India yet - by raking in Rs 23.50 crore in the first four days alone.

As expected, a majority of the film's collection have come in from multiplexes in Mumbai, Delhi and Bangalore. Bond films have failed to make much of a mark with the Indian audience - a trend that is often reflected in the box office collections.

The audience feedback for Spectre is mixed. It looks like Spectre may have to struggle to cross the lifetime collections of Skyfall ( Rs 44 crore) - which currently holds the record for the highest grossing Bond film of all time in India

The Sam Mendes film also stars Monica Bellucci, Christoph Waltz and Jesper Christensen.
