Released amid extremely high expectations, Rajinikanth’s Coolie has underperformed in the overseas market. It’s a big shocker for distributors since the film saw a flying start. During the opening weekend, it enjoyed solid numbers, but on weekdays, it was severely impacted, and it was clear that the magnum opus wouldn’t reach its true potential at the box office.

Backed by extraordinary pre-sales, the Kollywood action clocked a historic start of almost $4 million in the North American territory. Even in the other markets, it saw a superb start. No doubt it was a front-loaded affair, but no one ever expected it to witness a huge downfall on weekdays in the opening week. Surprisingly, it couldn’t even beat Rajini’s Jailer and 2.0.
How much did Coolie earn at the overseas box office in its lifetime run?
As per the closing collection update, Coolie has concluded its overseas run by earning $20.35 million at the box office. As per the latest currency rate, it equals 179.36 crore gross.
