The anticipation for Kung Fu Panda 4 was palpable in India, fueled by the immense love for the previous instalments. Catering to a wider audience than ever before, the film was released in not just English but also Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu, ensuring accessibility for a vast majority of Indian moviegoers. Read further to learn about Kung Fu Panda 4’s box office collection in India after the 3rd weekend.
With its blend of action, humour, and universally relatable themes of self-discovery and perseverance, Kung Fu Panda 4 drew crowds to theatres in its first 2 weeks in India. But, as predicted, the release of the monstrous sequel, Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire, cast a long shadow, impacting the Dragon Warrior’s performance.
In its 17-day run, Kung Fu Panda 4 has amassed a gross total of 37 crores, a respectable sum but one that falls short of expectations. The film’s regional breakdown reflects the nationwide trend. The English version leads the pack with 23.69 crore, followed by a significant drop for the dubbed versions: Telugu at 0.44 crore, Tamil at 2.62 crore, and Hindi at 4.65 crore (All net box office collections).
This performance can likely be attributed to the colossal success of Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire. The MonsterVerse behemoth dominated the Indian box office upon release, exceeding expectations and leaving audiences with a taste for large-scale creature carnage. Kung Fu Panda 4, while undoubtedly entertaining, simply couldn’t compete with the awe-inspiring titan tussle that was Godzilla x Kong. The monstrous sequel flexed its box office muscle, scoring a very impressive 38 crore weekend, further solidifying its dominance.
However, there’s still hope for Po and the Furious Five. The film’s international performance remains to be seen, and its charming narrative and star-studded cast (including Jack Black, Awkwafina, and Bryan Cranston) could still draw audiences in over time.
Whether Kung Fu Panda 4 manages to recapture its box office mojo in India remains to be seen. But one thing’s for sure: in the battle for the Indian rupee, Godzilla reigned supreme this time around.
