Shubman Gill Recalls His Earliest Spider-Man Memory

At that time, there used to be newspapers with all the channels and at what time the movie is going to come. It was a Saturday and it came at about 8 or 9 PM. I don't remember correctly. I watched the whole movie. And there used to be a repeat the next day, on Sunday in the afternoon, and I watched the repeat as well and I was just obsessed. There's this one scene where there is fire in the house and the green goblin is pretending to be a grandmother who needs help and Spider-Man puts his web, pulls him close and kicks him. That scene was insane for me. That scene, I imitated. I went to school; I think I was about 6 or 7. All of my friends watched the movie and we tried to imitate that. That action scene was just memorable."
