Jailer 2 Tops Rs 300 Crore Worldwide

Trade trackers say unusually large overseas receipts drove the rapid milestone while exhibitors have refused some Hindi screenings after the producer proposed a sub‑eight‑week OTT window.

Overview

  • The film, which opened on October 15, posted a strong Day‑1 global intake, saw a roughly 40% dip in India on Day‑2, and then recovered on Day‑3 to push reported worldwide gross past about Rs 300 crore.
  • Overseas markets supplied a large share of early receipts, with trackers reporting roughly Rs 97 crore by Day‑2 and about Rs 147.5 crore by Day‑3, materially lifting the three‑day global total.
  • India nett collections rose into the mid‑hundreds of crores over the opening weekend as Day‑3 domestic receipts rebounded to roughly Rs 47.8 crore and cumulative India nett crossed the Rs 100 crore mark in reported figures.
  • All box‑office numbers cited are provisional trade estimates compiled from public and industry sources and may change once official studio and final international reports are issued.
  • Exhibitor friction has emerged after Sun Pictures opted for a substantially shorter theatrical‑to‑streaming window for the Hindi version, prompting some multiplex chains to limit or decline Hindi screenings and potentially affecting weekend pan‑India reach.
