Industry trackers suggest slight variations in estimates (₹208–216 crore), but the consensus is that the film has firmly crossed the₹200 crore milestone in less than a week.

Day-Wise Box Office Breakdown (India Net)

Day 2 (Fri): ₹54.75 crore

Day 3 (Sat): ₹39.5 crore

Day 4 (Sun): ₹35.25 crore

Day 5 (Mon): ₹12 crore

Occupancy & Audience Trends

In Tamil Nadu, occupancy averaged 25–26%, with shows improving towards night.

The Hindi version performed better during evening and late-night shows, with 40–50% occupancy.

The film saw a 65% drop on Monday, followed by another 15–25% decline on Tuesday, signaling the typical post-festival slowdown.

Overseas & Worldwide Performance

Globally, Coolie has already crossed ₹400 crore gross in six days, putting it among the highest-grossing Tamil films of 2025.

In North America, the movie earned USD $6.22 million in just 5 days, making it the second-biggest Indian film of 2025 in that market.

On Day 6, however, collections slowed down internationally, especially with War 2 posing stiff competition.

Verdict So Far

With a production budget reportedly around ₹350–400 crore, Coolie still has a long way to go to be declared a full-fledged blockbuster. Analysts believe it will need to touch ₹600 crore worldwide to achieve that status.

Still, in just six days, Coolie has reaffirmed Rajinikanth’s box office dominance and given Tamil cinema another pan-Indian hit to remember.
