The anime Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle is creating a huge craze in India. In just three days, it has pulled massive crowds to theatres, even beating the opening records of big Hollywood films like Mission Impossible. With packed shows, strong bookings, and a wide release, the movie has quickly become one of the most popular film openings of 2025.
Demon Slayer Infinity Castle Sets New Anime Record in India
From the very first day, Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle showed strong results at the Indian box office. The film opened with ₹13 crore on Day 1 and added another ₹13 crore on Day 2, taking the total to ₹26 crore in just two days. On Day 3, collections went even higher with ₹14.25 crore, pushing the three-day total to a solid ₹40.25 crore.
What makes this achievement special is that the anime has already crossed the first weekend records of big Hollywood hits like Mission Impossible and Jurassic World in India. This makes Infinity Castle not only a win for anime fans but also one of the biggest surprises in the overall box office race this year.
The audience response has been excellent. Bookings were packed, and many early shows went houseful. The movie released across 1,700 screens in India and is available in multiple languages such as Japanese, English, Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu. This helped the film connect with a wider audience across regions.

For anime in India, this is a landmark moment. Crossing ₹40 crore in just three days shows that anime is no longer a niche. It is fast becoming part of the mainstream movie culture. With such a powerful start, Infinity Castle is expected to continue its strong run in the coming days, proving the rising love for anime among Indian audiences.
