Rajinikanth’s Coolie crosses ₹260 crore in India despite a sharp fall in collections on Day 12.
Despite experiencing its sharpest decline at the box office on its second Monday, Rajinikanth's action-packed gangster drama Coolie has reached the ₹260 crore milestone in India. The Lokesh Kanagaraj-directed movie has managed to hold its own against War 2, starring Hrithik Roshan and Jr. NTR, although weekday box office receipts are dwindling.
Day 12 Box Office Results for Coolie: Significant Decline in Profits
Early estimates from Sacnilk indicate that Coolie made only ₹3 crore net in India on Day 12 (the second Monday of August 25). Since its August 14 release, this is the worst one-day performance to date. As a result, the net domestic collection is currently ₹260.35 crore.
In comparison, War 2 collected ₹2.25 crore on the same day, bringing its total to ₹224.25 crore, ensuring Rajinikanth’s film continues to dominate the box office clash.

The film’s occupancy dropped significantly across versions:
Tamil: 13.67%
Hindi: 8.61%
Telugu: 15.53%

Concerning Coolie
Following the passing of his close friend Rajasekhar (Sathyaraj), Deva (Rajinikanth), a former coolie union leader, battles a strong cartel. Aamir Khan makes a special cameo appearance in the action drama, which also stars Nagarjuna, Soubin Shahir, Shruti Haasan, and Upendra.
Review of the Coolie Film
The Times of India gave the movie a rating of 3.5 out of 5, complimenting Lokesh Kanagaraj's directing and Rajinikanth's charisma. The second half impressed with powerful cameos, twists, and intense action, while the first half was criticised for being overly fan-service-heavy.
Coolie has already been a huge box office success, further solidifying Rajinikanth's dominance in Indian cinema, even though weekday earnings have slowed.
