Karate Kid Legends box office collection day 1: Karate Kid Legends, which hit the screens on May 30, has opened to a decent response at the Indian box office. It, however, has received underwhelming reviews with critics panning the execution. Karate Kid Legends is a martial arts drama directed by Jonathan Entwistle.
Karate Kid Legends takes a decent start in India
Jackie Chan is in the spotlight because of the latest film Karate Kid Legends, which arrived in theatres yesterday. According to Sacnilk, a trade portal, it earned Rs 1.75 crore (nett) in India on the first day. The film benefited from the popularity of the Karate Kid franchise but the dull reviews worked against it.
Karate Kid Legends has failed to beat the day 1 earnings of Thunderbolts. The Marvel film earned Rs 3.85 crore on the first day. This, however, is not too surprising as Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) titles enjoy a dedicated fan following in India. Moreover, Florence Pugh too is a known name in the market because of her work in Oppenheimer.
Coming back to Karate Kid Legends, it is expected to witness growth today (May 31) as it is a weekend. However, the jump may not be as high as expected because of the average word-of-mouth.

Jackie Chan drops a bombshell! Says his father was a spy, Chan isn't his real name
Actor Jackie Chan is a legendary figure in the film industry, renowned for his impressive martial arts skills. Interestingly, his father was a spy, a fact that was kept hidden from Jackie during his younger years. Also read: Jackie Chan says Rush Hour 4 needs to happen soon — 'Otherwise, we'll be 100 years old…' The actor spoke about his past during an interview with People magazine, looking back on the moment when he discovered the secret from his father, Charles. In the video, the action movie star, now 71, shows a family picture, mentioning 'that's my father and my mom. I cannot remember how old I am at the time'. Later, he recalled the moment when his father shared the secret while he was driving the car. 'My father was a very handsome guy, and my father was a spy. I got to know my father's secret when I was 40 something... One day, I was driving my car and my father suddenly said, 'Son, I'm old. I might sleep and never wake up'... I have a secret to tell you... You are not Chan. Your original name is Fang,' he added. The actor revealed that he was 'very shocked' at the revelation and initially felt unable to listen to his father Charles' explanation of his past. Back in 2003, Jackie had commissioned a documentary, Traces of the Dragon: Jackie Chan and His Lost Family, which tells the story of how his father worked as a government spy during the Chinese Civil War in the 1940s. His mother, Lee-lee, also had a secret past as an opium smuggler and gambler, which the film covered. Jackie Chan got the ticket to Hollywood in 1995 with a role in Rumble in the Bronx. However, it was 1998's buddy cop comedy Rush Hour opposite Chris Tucker that cemented his status as a star. Jackie returned to the Karate Kid franchise with Karate Kid: Legends. The film sees Jackie Chan and Ralph Macchio reprise their roles as Mr. Han and Daniel LaRusso. The film follows a new young martial artist, played by Ben Wang, as he is trained by Chan and Macchio's characters. The trailer features scenes from a martial arts academy, intense action moments in New York, and Jackie Chan's voice-over saying, "In life, you only have one question: Is it worth fighting for or not?" The film was released on May 30 in India.
