The film’s success began with a robust first week, amassing Rs 57.75 crore. Its momentum remained strong throughout its five-week run, culminating in a total collection of Rs 102.6 crore by its fifth weekend. This remarkable achievement places “Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire” as the 12th highest-grossing Hollywood film in India, surpassing popular titles such as “Thor: Love and Thunder” and “Jurassic World”.
The film boasts an esteemed cast, including Rebecca Hall, Brian Tyree Henry, and Dan Stevens, who reprise their roles from the previous installment. The captivating storyline follows Kong’s discovery of his kind in the Hollow Earth and his alliance with Godzilla to combat an oppressive leader and a formidable Titan wreaking havoc on the surface.
The Indian box office has witnessed a notable shift in recent times. Big-budget Hindi films face challenges in recovering costs, while Hollywood releases, such as “Dune 2”, “Kung Fu Panda 4”, and “Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire”, continue to surpass expectations. This trend highlights the evolving tastes and preferences of Indian audiences, who are increasingly embracing international content.
