Fans would know that the top 2 highest-grossing Tamil films of all time belong to Rajinikanth. 2.0 (407.05 crores) conquers the #1 spot, followed by Jailer (345 crores).
Had Coolie
earned over 342 crores in its lifetime, all the top 3
Tollywood grossers in history would star Rajinikanth. However, it will miss
that massive opportunity and Thalapathy Vijay’s Leo will
continue to rank at #3.
Take a
look at the language-wise box office breakdown below:
- Tamil: 170.23 crores
- Telugu: 57.55 crores
- Hindi: 33.93 crores
- Kannada: 2.55 crores
Total:
264.26 crores
Coolie is
reportedly mounted at a massive cost of 350 crores. In 13 days, the
makers have recovered 75.5% of the estimated budget. If it
drops further, the breakeven stage will be out of reach. All eyes are now on
the growth during the third weekend, which will majorly decide its fate at the
box office.
As news starts trickling in that overseas collections
of Coolie has dropped after two weeks, Hamsini Entertainment overseas buyer has
asked people to go by the figures that they put out = “Only producers and Hamsini
Entertainment (Overseas Distributor) will release official collection updates.
Any other figures circulating online are unreliable and must not be treated as
factual.". They also encouraged exhibitors, trade partners, and audiences
to rely only on official information regarding the film’s performance. “The
audience’s love and support are the true measure of success, and no campaign of
misinformation can overshadow that. Cinema belongs to audiences, not to vested
interests. Let us celebrate films with honesty and fairness," it stated.
