Though it had a solid start, the film soon lost momentum and is now trailing behind Rajinikanth’s actioner. On its 20th day, ‘War 2’ earned about Rs 65 lakh in India, taking its total to Rs 235.55 crore, much lower compared to the Rs 281.30 crore made by ‘Coolie.’
‘Coolie’ shows Deva’s powerful journey
‘Coolie’ tells the story of Deva (played by Rajinikanth), a former union leader for coolies who now runs affordable housing for students. Deva’s simple and peaceful life takes a dark turn when his dear friend Rajasekhar (played by Sathyaraj) dies under mysterious circumstances. The gripping narrative mixes social drama with high-octane action, giving fans plenty of moments to cheer for their superstar.
‘Coolie’ cast features star-studded lineup
The film features a star-studded ensemble, with Rajinikanth leading the way. ‘Coolie’ also includes Nagarjuna Akkineni, Shruti Haasan, Upendra, Sathyaraj, Soubin Shahir, and Aamir Khan in a pivotal role.
‘Coolie’ maintains a steady hold
Now in its third week, the film is facing the usual test of sustaining collections after the initial buzz. Weekends continue to give it a push, but weekdays have shown noticeable drops.
