Coolie Box Office Collection Day 4: Rajinikanth's Coolie, which marks the superstar's 50th year in the industry, enjoyed a long weekend at the Indian box office. However, after a record-breaking opening day collection on Thursday, August 14, the movie has hit a slowdown.
By day 2, the movie had already hit the ₹ 100 crore milestone. Despite the drop in ticket sales, Coolie crossed the ₹ 150 crore milestone on Saturday, Day 3.
On Sunday, however, the figures were slightly lower than on the previous days, and thus, it remains to be seen if Coolie will be able to pull to the ₹ 200 crore milestone today.
According to early estimates of industry tracker Sacnilk, Coolie, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, has earned ₹ 15.59 crore on Sunday till 5 PM.
With this, Coolie's 4-day total stands at ₹ 174.84 crore.
The total earnings will be revised later in the evening, once the figures for the evening and night show are declared.
It remains to be seen if the Rajinikanth movie will be able to hit yet another milestone by entering the ₹ 200 crore club by the end of the day today, or if it'll be a sad miss.
If the movie achieves this feat, Coolie's opening weekend collection will be a massive ₹ 200+ crore.
The movie has been released in five languages: Tamil, Telugu, Hindi, Malayalam, and Kannada, boosting a pan-India appeal.
Coolie, the biggest Indian opener of 2025 at the worldwide box office, earned a gross of ₹ 320 crore globally on Day 3. Of this, the movie minted ₹ 131.5 crore overseas, while its India gross was ₹ 188.5 crore.
Sacnilk said Coolie became the first Tamil movie to cross the ₹ 150 crore worldwide mark on its opening day, cementing its place in cinematic history.
Coolie's Day 4 global earnings will be published tomorrow, Monday.
Rajinikanth's Coolie stars Nagarjuna, Upendra, Soubin Shahir, Sathyaraj, Shruti Haasan, Reba Monica John, Junior MGR, and Monisha Blessy.
Bollywood actor Aamir Khan is also a part of the film in a cameo role as Daaha.

India's most profitable film earned 100x its budget with no stars, ran for a year in multiplexes, producer faced IT raid

To a layman, a successful film may look like a hit. The words superhit and blockbuster are also casually thrown around these days. But largely, the entertainment industry has parameters to define these terms. Any film making twice its landing cost at the box office can be termed a superhit. Anything more is blockbuster territory. Very few films ever go beyond 5x of a budget. Then what of this one film that earned over a hundred times its budget, and ran in theatres for over a year. This is the story of India's most profitable film. India's most profitable film was made for just ₹ 70 lakh. India's most profitable film In 2006, writer-director Yograj Bhatt made a romantic drama titled Mungaru Male. The low-budget Kannada film starred up-and-coming actors Ganesh and Pooja Gandhi, along with veteran thespian Anant Nag. The film was mounted on a budget of ₹70 lakh. Upon its release in December, Mungaru Male became a sleeper hit, celebrating golden jubilees in many places and becoming the highest-grossing Kannada film ever. It became the first film to complete one year in a multiplex as it ran in PVR Bangalore for 460 days, and also became the first Kannada film to cross ₹50 crore worldwide. By the end of its run, Mungaru Male was estimated to have earned ₹75 crore worldwide. A staggering ₹57 crore of it came from Karnataka, where the film was labelled an industry hit. Mungaru Male's impact and legacy Both Ganesh and Pooja Gandhi were relatively unknown when the film was released. But its success turned them into overnight stars. Both actors gave other hits in the years to come, becoming the most sought-after male and female stars in Kannada cinema over the next half a decade. However, the success was bittersweet for the film's producer, E. Krishna. The Income Tax department claimed that Mungaru Male had earned ₹67.50 crore net, and demanded that tax be paid on that. They even raided the producer for it. Mungaru Male's box office records stood for over a decade until many were broken by KGF Chapter 1. The film was remade in Telugu, Bengali, Odia, and Marathi and spawned a spiritual sequel, Mungaru Male 2, which was released in 2016. Mungaru Male has enjoyed a cult following among Kannada audiences, elevated by its repeated reruns on TV and recent OTT release.
