Jailer Box Office: Rajinikanth’s Film Starts Strong with 87 Crores Global Collection
The Tamil film Jailer has witnessed a robust international debut, amassing an impressive USD 4.70 million in global box office collections by Thursday. This total includes USD 1.10 million from Wednesday’s North American previews and USD 3.60 million on Thursday. Coupled with the Rs. 48 crores garnered on its opening day in India, the Rajinikanth starrer’s global earnings have reached approximately Rs. 87 crores.
The movie performed exceptionally well across various markets, spanning South East Asia, the Middle East, and North America. Notably, it excelled in North America, where it grossed USD 1.85 million. The film’s hold from Wednesday to Thursday showed a minimal drop of 30 percent, promising a surge in weekend collections. With the 4-day weekend, including previews, expected to exceed USD 4.50 million.
In the Middle East, Jailer’s debut was strong, amassing USD 1.15 million on its first day, surpassing the openings of PS1 and Vikram, despite its Thursday release, which is a working day in the UAE. The weekend collections here are projected to surpass USD 3.50 million.
The movie’s presence in Tamil hotspots across South East Asia, such as Malaysia and Singapore, also proved successful, with collections of around RM 2.30 million and SGD 340K, respectively. Notably, the United Kingdom and Australia secured the third and fifth best Kollywood starts with GBP 225K and AUD 270K, respectively.
Anticipating the four-day extended weekend overseas, Jailer is expected to achieve collections ranging from over USD 13 million to potentially surpassing USD 14 million. This projected performance could mark the highest four-day earnings for Kollywood, potentially outstripping PS1’s initial USD 13.20 million, a total that Jailer seems poised to rival in its full run.
The division of overseas box office earnings for Jailer is outlined as follows:
North America: USD 1,850,000
Middle East: USD 1,150,000
Australia/NZ: USD 200,000
Malaysia: USD 510,000
Singapore: USD 260,000
Rest of Asia: USD 125,000
Total: USD 4,680,000 / Rs. 39 crores
