Coolie vs War 2 Box Office Day 19: Rajinikanth’s Coolie and Jr NTR–Hrithik Roshan starrer War 2 continue their box office clash as both movies enter their third week in cinemas. After delivering record-breaking numbers in its opening week, Coolie has now started to slow down at the domestic box office. On Day 19, which fell on Monday, September 2, the film recorded its lowest earnings. However, despite the weekday dip, the Lokesh Kanagaraj directorial Coolie has managed to be one of the biggest Tamil movies of 2025. On the other hand, War 2, directed by Ayan Mukerji is witnessing a major dip at the box office.

On its 19th day, Coolie earned an estimated Rs1.10 crore nett, according to Sacnilk marking the lowest single-day figure since its release on August 14. The film’s Day 18 numbers had been stronger at Rs 3.1 crore, with Rs 2.1 crore from the Tamil version, Rs50 lakh from Hindi, Rs 45 lakh from Telugu, and Rs 5 lakh from Kannada markets.

Its worldwide total has now touched a massive Rs 507.75 crore, making it one of Rajinikanth’s highest-grossing films ever. Additionally, Coolie is thriving globally with more than Rs 507 crore gross
War 2 Box Office Day 19 Update
Meanwhile, War 2, the much-anticipated sequel to the 2019 blockbuster War, has had a mixed third week.

This marked a steep 58% drop from its Sunday earnings. With this, the Jr NTR–Hrithik Roshan spy action drama has managed a total of Rs 235.1 crore nett in India.
