Jailer box office collections: Rajinikanth starrer Overseas gross rises to USD 22M, Tops Rs. 500cr Worldwide
Jailer collected $3.10M in its 2nd weekend overseas, taking its total gross to $22M. Combined with Rs. 326 crores in India, the worldwide gross of the Rajinikanth starrer stands at Rs. 503 crores.
During its second weekend, Jailer raked in USD 3.10 million internationally, propelling its total overseas box office gross to USD 21.40 million (Rs. 177 crores). Combined with Rs. 326 crores in India, the worldwide gross stands at Rs. 503 crores approx. Jailer is the second highest-grossing Kollywood film to date, trailing just behind 2.0, overtaking PS1. The Rajinikanth starter is eying a Rs. 600 crores plus finish globally.
The film is just a bit shy of 2.0 (USD 22.10 million) to become the biggest Kollywood film internationally. However, its worth noting, that the 2.0 overseas total includes around USD 3 million from China release, which Jailer or for that matter other Kollywood films won't be having. Excluding China, Ponniyin Selvan: Part 1 was the biggest Kollywood film overseas with USD 20.70 million.
Jailer has set many new highs for Kollywood internationally. In the Middle East, it reigns supreme as the highest-grossing Tamil film, amassing USD 6.10 million and surpassing Vikram’s USD 5.10 million. Over in Malaysia, Jailer has locked the long-standing record of RM 12.70 million by Kabali, with current estimates putting the film at RM 12.70 million by the end of its second weekend. The film stands a chance to topple Dilwale's RM 15.70 million as the highest-grossing Indian film in the market, but that will need better than normal holds in the third week.
In North America, Jailer is second only to PS1, though that will change soon as it is heading for a USD 7 million finish. It is also behind PS1 in most of Europe including the UK and France, though some of these may change depending on how it holds from here on. Australia and Singapore are the only two main markets that will not set a new record.
