Based on previous Disney releases, Mufasa will likely be streaming on Disney+ in March or April, but the time frame may be shortened by the film's box office performance

The Lion King outperformed Paramount’s Sonic the Hedgehog 3 at the international box office, solidifying its global dominance. While both films competed strongly during the holiday season, Mufasa leveraged its international appeal to pull ahead of Sonic 3 in worldwide earnings.

The Lion King prequel has maintained a steady pace at the box office in India. The film has become one of the few Hollywood releases to have made it big in the domestic market. The movie has become the third Hollywood release of the year to have grossed more than ₹100 crore at the Indian box office.
