MUMBAI: Diwali cannot get grander than this. Two of the mightiest Marvel Super Heroes will grace the Indian television screens for the very first time with the premiere of Marvel Studios Thor: Ragnarok. What better stage than Star Movies and Star Movies Select HD to showcase this epic blockbuster this Sunday at 1PM and 9PM.

The 17th film in the most celebrated fan favourite Marvel Cinematic Universe brings together a stellar star cast of Chris Hemsworth, Tom Hiddleston, Cate Blanchett, Mark Ruffalo, Tessa Thompson, Jeff Goldblum and Idris Elba. The quirky tone along with the humorous take on a Super Hero movie was all thanks to the brilliant director Taika Waititi. The movie is a visual spectacle, with witty dialogues and fantastic new characters that were introduced in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Taika Waititi’s dedication and love for the movie is evident from the fact that he played (motion captured) the characters of the lovable Korg and Surtur – a special bonus for fans from a maverick filmmaker.

Since the premiere is on the eve of Diwali, the marketing campaign will capture this essence with a fun surprise for all the fans as they will celebrate #SuperDiwaliWithThor. The details on how to be a part of this engagement will be communicated through the twitter handle @StarMoviesIndia. That’s not all, the campaign will give fans a chance to see fun, quirky and witty Diwali memes created by taking a cue from the movie itself. They can share with friends and celebrate a #SuperDiwaliWithThor this Sunday at 1Pm and 9PM on Star Movies and Star Movies Select HD.

The audiences and critics alike have loved this film, with Hollywood Reporter calling it a ‘Majestic Spectacle!” and the international media have said that it’s funny, smart, quirky and unlike any other Marvel movie.
