Tom Holland's "Spider-Man: Far From Home" is yet to release in India, but the iconic Web Slinger has already reached India through art. In anticipation of the superhero film, students of art painted Spider-Man graffiti art on the streets of Mumbai last week. Some art students in Bengaluru and Pune also brought their version of Spider-Man alive through graffiti art.
And Spider-Man is on an India tour with the art. In one, Spider-Man is seen on top of India Gate, while in another he is on top of the architectural marvel of India -- Taj Mahal. He can also be seen in front of the Gateway Of India. Taking the India story forward, one image shows him with a classical dancer -- and it seems like he is also trying his hand at Indian classical dance.
Thanks to the widespread fan frenzy for the film in India, "Spider-Man: Far From Home" will arrive in India a day earlier than scheduled.
The film, which was scheduled to release on July 5, will now open on July 4. Sony Pictures Entertainment India will release the film in English, Hindi, Tamil and Telugu.
