Jack Black returns as Po in "Kung Fu Panda 4" after an 8-year hiatus, and the film is making waves at the global box office. Within no time, the film has earned more than US $ 268 million with India also contributing to its success.The film which is currently in its second weekend, is having a glorious run at the box office.

The film earned about Rs 16.95 crore in the first week, and added about Rs 7.78 crore to its tally in the second weekend. The film on Friday earned Rs 1.4 crore which was pretty much the same as its Thursday collection, but on Saturday it saw more than 100 % jump to collect Rs 3.1 crore, and on Sunday as per early estimates it added Rs 3.28 crore, taking the overall collection of the film to Rs 24.77 crore. The film will easily cross the Rs 25 crore mark given it is a holiday on Monday on the occasion of Holi.

The film, on the day of the last Friday opened to Rs 2.25 crore and saw a huge jump on Saturday to collect Rs 4 crore, and on Sunday it spiked again to collect Rs 5.25 crore, but the film on Monday dropped to just Rs 1 crore, and on Tuesday it spiked again to collect Rs 1.22 crore. On Wednesday, it added Rs 1.45 crore, and on Thursday it earned Rs 1.4 crore, taking the first week total to Rs 16.95 crore.

Usually with Hollywood, second week is where the drop starts to happen, but with Kung Fu Panda 4 that is not the case.

The makers also recently launched a video of ace cricketer Hardik Pandya with Po- the lead character of Kung Fu Panda. This time around Jack Black has the company of Awkwafina, Bryan Cranston, James Hong, Ian McShane, Ke Huy Quan, Dustin Hoffman and Viola Davis.
