* DeathByOriginStory: Uncle Bhim is stabbed to death while trying to stop a mugging. Pavitr hears shouts and screams, but doesn't intervene because he's in a hurry, on his way to meet Uncle Bhim. The details are different, but the death - and the way the guilt shapes Pavitr's path as a hero - play exactly the same role as Uncle Ben's death in the original Marvel ''ComicBook/SpiderMan'' stories.

Marvel later defined Pavitr's world as an AlternateUniverse connected to the main Franchise/MarvelUniverse, allowing him to meet Peter Parker and join an AllianceOfAlternates, but this initial story is more of an adaptation, with no suggestion that it's connected to the main Marvel continuity.

* DoingInTheScientist: In the original ''Spider-Man'' stories, Peter Parker's powers came from science, as did Norman Osborn's goblin serum and Doctor Octopus's robotic tentacles. In this version, they're all magical - as is [[spoiler:Venom, a demonic presence rather than an alien one]].

Wealthy businessman Nalin Oberoi is seeking a magical amulet that will grant him great power. Seeking to thwart him, a mystic appears to Pavitr and bestows spider-powers and a costume upon him. Now Pavitr has to use his new powers to stop Oberoi and his demonic masters.

!! ''Spider-Man: India'' contains examples of the following tropes:
* BigBad: Nalin Oberoi is the villain of the story, and responsible for most of the bad things that happen. His men slaughter Pavitr's village, his quest for the amulet triggers Pavitr's transformation into Spider-Man, and he's the final foe Pavitr confronts.
* DeathByOriginStory: Uncle Bhim is stabbed to death while trying to stop a mugging. Pavitr hears shouts and screams, but doesn't intervene because he's in a hurry, on his way to meet Uncle Bhim. The details are different, but the death - and the way the guilt shapes Pavitr's path as a hero - play exactly the same role as Uncle Ben's death in the original Marvel ''ComicBook/SpiderMan'' stories.
* ForeignRemake: The series was initially created as an Indian version of Spider-Man for an Indian audience.
