Foreign films
Spider-Man: No Way Home records the biggest opening weekend for any film during the COVID-19 pandemic in Pakistan, third highest for a Hollywood release which grossed nearly 9.2 crore,[26] highest-grossing film during COVID-19, and Pakistan is one of the few countries where Spider-Man: No Way Home has managed to surpass the record of Avengers: Endgame to become the highest grossing Hollywood film in the country.[7] Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness released in Pakistan 3 days after Eid al-Fitr when five local films were already running in theaters from Eid Day 1 but still managed to surpass them all. This angered local producers and they demanded a ban on foreign films but the fans' reaction on social media blocked off the protest as the audience was more interested in watching Doctor Strange which later became the highest-grossing film of 2022 at the Pakistani box office where it grossed more than 23 crore.[27][28][29]
