'Coolie' box office collection Day 7: Rajinikanth starrer secures win over 'War 2'; ends week 1 with Rs 222.5 crore haul
Rajinikanth's 'Coolie' has wrapped up its first week at the box office on a strong note, collecting an estimated Rs 222.5 crore net in India. Despite facing weekday dips, the film has reaffirmed the superstar's dominance at the ticket window. Blockbuster box office opening Released on August 14, 'Coolie' stormed into cinemas with an impressive Rs 65 crore opening day haul, driven by Rajinikanth's unmatched fan frenzy. According to a report on Sacnilk, by the end of Friday, just two days into release, the film had already crossed the Rs 100 crore mark, notching up a total of Rs 119.75 crore. Weekend dip in collections The extended Independence Day weekend added fuel to the film's momentum. On Saturday, the film collected an estimated Rs 39.5 crore, followed by Rs 35.25 crore on Sunday, pushing its four-day total to Rs 194.5 crore. By its first Monday, the film surged past the Rs 200 crore milestone, though with a noticeable slowdown, earning Rs 12 crore. Weekday decline in ticket sales Post-Monday, the film's collections saw sharp drops. On Tuesday, it managed to rake in just around Rs 9.5 crore, and by Wednesday, the earnings dipped further to Rs 6.5 crore, bringing its Week 1 net total to Rs 222.5 crore. Rajinikanth's biggest box office hits With this, 'Coolie' is now Rajinikanth's third-biggest grosser in India. His sci-fi epic 2.0 remains untouchable at the top with Rs 407.05 crore net, followed by Jailer with Rs 348.55 crore. Worldwide collections According to trade reports on IMDB, the film's all-India gross stands at Rs 260.6 crore, while its overseas business has brought in Rs 162.2 crore. This takes Coolie's worldwide total to a massive Rs 422.8 crore within its first week. Made on a budget of Rs 350 crore, the film has already recovered costs and is now in clear profit territory. Clash with War 2 What makes this feat more remarkable is that Coolie has managed to achieve it despite a direct clash with Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR's War 2. While Coolie surged past the Rs 220 crore mark, War 2 is estimated to have ended the week slightly lower at around Rs 199 crore, highlighting Rajinikanth's box office dominance.

Judge Frank Caprio dies at 88 following brave fight with pancreatic cancer
Judge Frank Caprio, affectionately dubbed the 'Nicest Judge in the World,' passed away peacefully on August 20, 2025, at the age of 88, following a long and courageous battle with pancreatic cancer. As per a statement shared on his official page, the former Providence, Rhode Island, judge "passed away peacefully at the age of 88 after a long and courageous battle with pancreatic cancer." Frank Caprio wasn't just another judge. For nearly 40 years, he served on the Providence Municipal Court in Rhode Island, winning hearts with his folksy humour, empathy, and genuinely compassionate rulings. His courtroom felt like a safe zone, where minor offenses—like a forgotten turn signal or a red-light violation—were met with understanding, kindness, and an extra dose of humanity. What really cemented Frank's legendary status was Caught in Providence, the daytime show that captured these heartfelt moments on camera. Running between 2018 and 2020, it earned multiple Emmy nods and went viral. Clips from the show racked up over a billion views on social media, and the judge himself became a beloved online star If you needed a feel-good moment, there was always a Caprio clip for that. Picture this: a 96-year-old man caring for his handicapped son facing a traffic citation—Judge Caprio dismisses it on the spot, praising him for his devotion and calling him 'what America is all about'. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Is it better to shower in the morning or at night? Here's what a microbiologist says CNA Read More Undo Or another where he cuts a bartender some slack because he was earning peanuts—then cheekily reminds everyone not to 'eat and run,' because 'the poor people working hard all day for three bucks an hour are going to have to pay your bill'. His fight with pancreatic cancer Judge Frank Caprio's battle with pancreatic cancer was as public as it was courageous. He revealed his diagnosis in December 2023, asking fans worldwide to keep him in their prayers. Through heartfelt videos, he shared updates on his radiation treatments, hospital stays, and occasional setbacks, always with gratitude and hope. Even in pain, his warmth and humor never faded. Pancreatic cancer — you've probably heard the term, but it's one of those illnesses that doesn't always get as much attention as others, like breast or prostate cancer. Sadly, it's also one of the toughest cancers out there. The pancreas is this little organ tucked behind your stomach that helps with digestion and blood sugar control. When cancer shows up there, it's sneaky. Most people don't notice early symptoms, and by the time it's caught, it's often in the later stages. That's why doctors sometimes call it a 'silent' cancer. Common signs? They can be vague—stuff like stomach or back pain, sudden weight loss, jaundice (yellowing of the skin or eyes), fatigue, or changes in appetite. Because these overlap with so many everyday health issues, it's tricky to connect the dots without medical tests. If you're wondering about prevention, there's no magic shield, but lifestyle plays a role. Smoking, heavy drinking, obesity, and family history all increase risk. On the flip side, eating a balanced diet, staying active, and keeping a healthy weight can lower your chances. One important takeaway? Awareness matters. The more people know about pancreatic cancer, the more likely it is that someone recognizes the signs and pushes for testing early. It's a tough battle, but with more research funding and public awareness in North America and beyond, there's hope for better outcomes in the future.
