Why Coolie missed the Bus in Tamil Nadu ? Shruti in Dulquer Film

  Coolie’s At the end of the second week it will be placed in between Jailer 511 crores worldwide and Leo 538 crores worldwide. With high negative WOM, the film grossed more than 400 crores. Imagine a WOM similar to Vikram. Loki has missed a very costly chance. If it had received positive response, confirm 800–900 crores. Coolie will at the maximum attain a break even status . It will fail as a certified theatrical hit. Table profits go to producers. Sun pictures may have already been profited from Coolie from the options other than theatres. But Theatre owners and distributors in TN and Kerala will incur losses because of Coolie. Leo’s 4-day gross is 357 Cr, whereas Coolie’s 4-day gross is 380 Cr.

It is behaving pathetically in theatres from day 5.

The dismal performance in TN can be multi reasonable.

1 ) The movie was not promoted in Coimbatore, Trichy and Madurai. These audiences were taken for granted. They taught a lesson to producers

2 ) Rajini no longer wields magic on Tamil audiences. He is not Vijay. He can’t sell his average movies to tamils like the other guy. Even the celebrated Rajini movie jailer didn’t reach 200 crores like Vijay s Leo and Goat .

3 ) Vijay fans who constitute a chunk of the Tamil audiences boycotted the movie except some who went to the theatre in search of memes.

People of Kerala have their own better movies to watch.

Its final collection can be like

TN 150 crores

Kerala 35 crores

Karnataka 65 crores

Andhra 80 crores

Hindi 45 crores

overseas 200 : Worldwide 575 crores.

Shruti Haasan on working with Rajinikanth It was really lovely working with Rajini sir. I definitely learned a lot about why he is the star he is while watching him work, like his discipline with work, his approach to his character, everything was just really fun to watch. But really, I learned a lot from him as a person. And by that, I mean, his attitude on set, it's so positive. He's extremely collaborative. He's very, very humble. But he's also very energetic. He brings such a positive energy onto the set. So I learned a lot about how to deal with people from Rajini sir and that's a lesson I take away.
