Coolie Box Office Collection Day 7: Rajinikanth’s First Week Ends with a Bang
If there’s one thing that never changes in Indian cinema, it’s Rajinikanth’s ability to pull audiences to theaters like a magnet. Coolie has officially completed its first week, and the day 7 numbers tell us one thing: the film is a blockbuster juggernaut. Even with the weekday slowdown, the Rajini mania hasn’t exactly cooled down—it’s just shifted gears a little.
Coolie Box Office Collection Day 7
According to Sacnilk, on its seventh day (Wednesday), Coolie minted around ₹6.50 crore net across India. Yes, it’s a shade lower than Tuesday’s ₹9.5 crore, but let’s be honest—that’s how weekdays usually go. Nobody expects Wednesday to match the fireworks of a festive Thursday debut.
Here’s the quick snapshot so far:
-
Day 1 (Thu): ₹65 crore
-
Day 2 (Fri): ₹54.75 crore
-
Day 3 (Sat): ₹39.5 crore
-
Day 4 (Sun): ₹35.25 crore
-
Day 5 (Mon): ₹12 crore
-
Day 6 (Tue): ₹9.5 crore
-
Day 7 (Wed): ~₹6.50 crore (estimated)
Total: ₹222.5 crore (Week 1)
To put it in perspective: most films would throw a success party if they made ₹100 crore in two weeks. Rajini got more than double in just one. That’s the difference between a superstar and The Superstar.
Worldwide Collections: Rajinikanth’s Global Grip
First India, then the world. Coolie has crossed ₹425 crore worldwide gross in just seven days. It’s not just the south pulling the weight either. Overseas markets—especially Malaysia (no surprise there, Rajini is like family there), Singapore, the Gulf, and even parts of the U.S.—have been buzzing with near-packed shows.

India Gross: ₹222.5+ crore
-
Overseas Gross: ₹175+ crore
-
Worldwide Gross: ₹425+ crore (7 days)
Tamil Nadu Rules, But Don’t Ignore the Rest
Naturally, Tamil Nadu is leading the collections, topping over ₹125 crore in just a week. Every second theatre seems to be playing Coolie, and the word-of-mouth buzz is keeping weekday shows alive.
-
In Telugu-speaking states, Coolie is comfortably raking in steady numbers, holding its own against local stars.
-
The Hindi version is adding a quiet but important push. Multiplex audiences in Delhi, Mumbai, and Pune are particularly responsive.
What struck me while looking at the numbers is how “pan-India” genuinely feels true here—it’s not just a trendy label, but a reality.
Week 1 Verdict: A Stormy Success
So how do we sum up Week 1? ₹222.5 crore net in India, ₹425+ crore gross worldwide, and Rajinikanth sitting comfortably as the box office king. It’s not his biggest-ever opener, but the pace and consistency are remarkable for a film launching in mid-week and facing the usual weekday dips.
I do think the second weekend will be interesting. The coming Friday usually decides whether a film settles into a “huge hit” zone or makes the legendary leap to a historic all-timer. With the way Coolie is riding right now, it wouldn’t surprise me if it cruises into the ₹500 crore club (worldwide) in its second week itself.
