Overview

  • After four days, Coolie netted ₹194.25 crore domestically and is on course to cross ₹200 crore, according to trade tracker Sacnilk.
  • War 2 added an estimated ₹31 crore on Day 4, bringing its four-day India net to about ₹173.6 crore and its five-day tally close to ₹179 crore.
  • Both films surged over Independence Day then saw day-by-day declines, with Monday nets around ₹5.6 crore for Coolie and ₹4.4 crore for War 2, according to provisional trade estimates.
  • Coolie’s early success is driven by southern market dominance, extensive overseas presales and non-theatrical deals that offset production risk.
  • War 2 faces growing pressure to sustain its theatrical run given reported landing and production costs estimated at up to ₹400 crore.
