Rajinikanth breaks records as Jailer crushes Ponniyen Selvan II and other mega hits
In a staggering cinematic triumph, superstar Rajinikanth’s recent blockbuster, ‘Jailer’, has now claimed the title of this year’s top-earning Tamil film. Leaving cinematic giants like ‘Ponniyen Selvan II’ and ‘Bahubali’ in its wake, ‘Jailer’ rockets to become the third highest-grossing Kollywood film on a global scale.
Directed by the innovative Nelson Dilipkumar, this film not only showcases Rajinikanth’s unparalleled talent but also marks the first-time collaboration between the director and the legend himself. With ‘Ponniyen Selvan II’ garnering around Rs 345 Crore, the new sensation ‘Jailer’ is quickly closing in, boasting an awe-inspiring Rs 235.65 Crore in India alone.
A breakdown of its whirlwind earnings reveals: an opening bang with Rs 49.35 Crore, a slight dip to Rs 25.75 Crore on Day 2, and a resilient rebound over the weekend. And if that wasn’t enough, August 15 witnessed an explosive growth, defying the typical Monday blues with a whopping collection of Rs 23.55 Crore. If projections hold, ‘Jailer’ could amass an astonishing total of Rs 244.15 Crore by Day 9!
Launched worldwide on August 10, ‘Jailer’ marked the much-anticipated return of Rajinikanth to the cinematic universe after a two-year hiatus. The film isn’t just a one-man show; it’s studded with stars like Tamannaah Bhatia, Ramya Krishnan, Shiva Rajakumar, Vinayakan, Jackie Shroff, and Mohanlal, each delivering pivotal performances.
