Coolie Box Office Collection Day 6: Rajinikanth movie hits massive slowdown after earning ₹200 cr, mints THIS amount

Coolie Box Office Collection Day 6: Rajinikanth's Coolie suffered a massive 65.96% slowdown in earnings on Monday, slowing down its dream run after the ₹ 200 crore milestone. On Tuesday, too, the movie did not pick up much momentum. The Rajinikanth movie, released on August 14 to mark the superstar's 50th year in the industry, enjoyed a record-breaking long weekend at the Indian box office. Coolie is facing fierce competition from Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR's War 2. Rajinikanth's Coolie stars Nagarjuna, Upendra, Soubin Shahir, Sathyaraj, Shruti Haasan, Reba Monica John, Junior MGR, and Monisha Blessy. Bollywood actors Aamir Khan and Pooja Hegde also appear in a cameo. According to early estimates of industry tracker Sacnilk, Coolie, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, earned just ₹ 4.7 crore on Tuesday until 6:30 PM. This figure is significantly lower than what the movie earned during the long weekend. On Monday, the movie earned ₹ 12 crore, of which its Tamil variant contributed the maximum, ₹ 7.75 crore. With this, Coolie's 6-day total stands at ₹ 211.2 crore. The total earnings will be revised later in the evening, once the figures for the evening and night show are declared. 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 ₹ 403 crore globally on Day 5. Of this, the movie minted ₹ 158.45 crore overseas, while its India gross was ₹ 244.55 crore. However, according to the moviemakers, Coolie raked in ₹ 404 crore gross in 4 days, and touted it to be the highest worldwide gross collection in the Tamil film industry. Sacnilk said Coolie became the first Tamil movie to cross the Rs150 crore worldwide mark on its opening day, cementing its place in cinematic history. Coolie's Day 6 global earnings will be published tomorrow, Wednesday.

Nitesh Tiwari Ropes In Amit Sial To Play Sugriv In Ranbir Kapoor's Ramayana: Report

Amit Sial joins Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana, set to play Sugriv alongside Ranbir Kapoor, Sai Pallavi, Yash, and Sunny Deol in the epic saga slated for a Diwali 2026 release. Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana is one of the most awaited and talked-about upcoming projects. The stellar cast has been making waves, and a new update suggests that Amit Sial has joined the Ranbir Kapoor -starrer, and he will be seen playing the role of Sugriv. As per Hindu mythology, Sugriv is the younger brother of Bali, who helped Lord Rama in rescuing Sita from the demon king Ravana. As per a report in Hindustan Times, a source revealed, 'Amit has shot a few portions of the film, and he will be seen playing a Hindu epic mythological character Sugriv. The actor and the director, Nitesh, will be working on his appearance to have authenticity to his narrative." 'Amit is nearly at the completion of his part in the first edition of the film," the source further added. More About Ramayana Makers have finally unveiled the first look from the much-anticipated cinematic rendition of the epic, headlined by Ranbir Kapoor. On July 3, they shared the first looks of Ranbir, Sai Pallavi, and Yash from the upcoming project. On July 3, 2025, the makers unveiled the epic universe with a global launch of Ramayana: The Introduction, setting the stage for the timeless battle between two of mythology's most iconic forces: Rama vs Ravana. Directed by Nitesh Tiwari, the film boasts a star-studded cast with Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram, Sai Pallavi as Sita, Yash as Ravana, Sunny Deol as Hanuman, and Ravie Dubey as Lakshman. Produced by Madhu Mantena and Allu Aravind, Ramayana is shaping up to be one of the grandest projects ever attempted in Indian cinema. The first instalment, Ramayana: Part 1, is slated for a Diwali 2026 release, while the second chapter will follow in Diwali 2027. Amitabh Bachchan To Lend His Voice As Narrator? Earlier, an update suggested Amitabh Bachchan will also be an integral part of the magnum opus—not just as a character but as its narrator. A Mid-Day report quoted a source, 'We're exploring the idea of having Bachchan as the sutradhar. His voice adds gravitas that no one else can match. The makers are keen that the film opens with his voice. It's still at the discussion stage. While the clash is a concern, there will be ways to work it out on a creative level. Having him open the film and be the spiritual narrator will have a strong impact." Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's. Please keep discussions respectful and constructive.
