Coolie Advance Booking Day 1 Report: Everyone is excited to watch who will prevail in the box office battle between War 2, starring Hrithik Roshan-Jr NTR and Rajinikanth's Coolie. The Tamil action-thriller is expected to maintain its lead despite the fact that both actioners will be released on August 14. With over 12 lakh tickets sold on its first day and an opening weekend total of Rs 100 crore, the Rajinikanth starrer dominated pre-sales. The much anticipated movie stars Aamir Khan, Nagarjuna, Shruti Haasan, Soubin Shahir, Upendra, and Sathyaraj, where Rajinikanth plays Deva.

Coolie made Rs 27.01 crore from the sale of 12,46,828 tickets in India. After selling over 10 lakh tickets in Tamil, the movie only sold one lakh in Telugu. Tamil Nadu brought in Rs 11.97 crore, Andhra Pradesh brought in Rs 1.46 crore, Telangana brought in Rs 1.69 crore, and Karnataka brought in Rs 6.85 crore.

Coolie has sold 50 crore Indian rupees worth of tickets for its first weekend of release. The pre-sales worldwide indicate a weekend revenue of Rs 60 crore, of which Rs 45 crore is for the opening day alone. The opening weekend earnings of the ensemble picture have already exceeded Rs 110 crore, with Rs 80 crore earned on the first day alone, as per sacnilk's latest report. Trade analysts predict that the picture may achieve record-breaking opening figures thanks to Rajinikanth's fame, Lokesh Kanagaraj's demonstrated action thriller skills, and the joyous weekend.

Coolie, which is helmed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, Rajinikanth is poised to turn the pages of Tamil cinema history. Before the action-thriller's debut, the actor-director team is already making waves at the box office throughout the world, and the pre-sales figures are unmistakable evidence of this.
