It was a fair weekend for Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire as a little over Rs. 2.50 crores* came in. Given the fact that there is no real competition around it and it’s also a set film, at least a crore more could well have come in. However, a majority of audiences has already watched the film and the footfalls are now primarily coming in because there is no major alternative. Hence, they are basically trickling in some sort of numbers instead of a large crowd gathering for the film on a daily basis.

That said, the film has more than just done its job and is a big hit already. In the times when so many new movies are simply dead on arrival, this one at least managed to not just take an opening but also sustain well, hence promising to come close to double its first week score of Rs. 54 crores. It won’t reach exactly Rs. 108 crores but then has a shot at concluding its theatrical run around Rs. 105 crores mark.

Before that, it’s gearing up now for its major milestone of gaining an entry into the Rs. 100 Crores Club. Currently at Rs. 98.32 crores*, it’s now less than Rs. 2 crores away from hitting the century, and that should happen by the next weekend. Then it will eventually go past the lifetime scores of other Hollywood biggies Jurassic World [Rs. 101 crores] and Thor: Love and Thunder [Rs. 101.70 crores] as well, though it will fall short of Furious 7 [Rs. 108 crores].

That said, it’s a superhit nonetheless, especially in today’s parlance, and that’s an achievement in itself.

*Estimates. Final numbers awaited
