Rajinikanth’s Jailer roars with Rs 500cr collection, beats Gadar 2 and OMG 2
Superstar Rajinikanth’s latest cinematic marvel, ‘Jailer’, is smashing records and rewriting box office history. This highly-anticipated release marks Thalaiva’s grand comeback after two years, and fans are pouring in from all corners of the globe, skyrocketing its earnings to a jaw-dropping Rs 500 crore (Rs 5 billion) worldwide in just 10 days!
Setting the Indian Box Office Ablaze!
If that wasn’t spectacular enough, within India’s borders alone, the electrifying action blockbuster has raked in a whopping Rs 245.9 crore, according to the leading box office tracker, Sacnilk. As noted by trade guru Manobala Vijayabalan, ‘Jailer’ has not only achieved the grand milestone of Rs 500 crore worldwide but also ascended as Rajinikanth’s second and the Tamil film industry’s third mega-hit to enter this elite club, right after the spectaculars ‘2.0’ and ‘Ponniyin Selvan: I’.
Against All Odds!
What’s more sensational is that ‘Jailer’ reached this incredible feat despite fierce competition from heavyweights like Sunny Deol’s ‘Gadar 2’ and Akshay Kumar’s ‘OMG 2’. Both films, while doing commendably well, couldn’t dim the megawatt shine of ‘Jailer’.
A Star Meets a Chief Minister!
Adding more dazzle to this success story, the legendary Rajinikanth recently paid a visit to the Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister, Yogi Adityanath, in Lucknow, following the screening of ‘Jailer’. A video capturing the humble superstar touching the feet of Yogi has become an internet sensation, taking the film’s buzz to stratospheric levels.
The Magic Behind ‘Jailer’
Releasing on August 10, ‘Jailer’ is the maiden masterpiece from the collaboration of director Nelson Dilipkumar and Thalaiva. In this thrilling saga, Rajinikanth essays the gripping role of jailer Muthuvel Pandian, affectionately known as Tiger. The film boasts of an ensemble cast featuring luminaries like Mohanlal, Jackie Shroff, Priyanka Mohan, and many more.
Brace yourself! With ‘Jailer’ smashing one record after another, this is a Rajini storm you don’t want to miss.
