War 2 vs Coolie

War 2, starring NTR and Hrithik Roshan, is struggling big time at the ticket windows. The biggie saw a good growth on Independence Day, but after that, it registered massive drops. On the first Sunday, the movie earned less than the opening day numbers, which pretty much sums up the scenario.

On the first Monday, the spy action thriller crashed both at the domestic and overseas box office. Till now, the makers haven’t released any collection poster despite repeated requests from fans. Finally, five days after the film’s release, YRF shared the collection poster, according to which the multistarrer earned Rs. 300.5 crores gross globally.

In India, War 2 collected about Rs. 240 crores gross, while another Rs. 60.5 crores ($6.93 million) came from the international markets. The domestic nett is around Rs. 196.5 crores. Generally, this number would have been considered solid for other movies, but since War 2 features two of the biggest stars from Telugu and Hindi cinema, the collections are way below expectations. Let’s see how much more this biggie can make in its lifetime.

The much-awaited Bollywood biggie War 2 and the highly anticipated Kollywood film Coolie hit the box office four days ago during the Independence Day weekend. Both movies, in what has become a massive cinematic showdown, have received mixed reactions from audiences and fans of the respective stars.

Both films opened with strong collections, but the buzz soon slowed down as they moved into Day 2 and Day 3. The numbers are fine, yet still fall short of expectations considering their massive budgets. With today being Sunday, the box office is expected to show stronger growth compared to the previous days.

Meanwhile, early reports suggest that Coolie is pulling ahead of War 2. In the last 24 hours on BookMyShow alone, Coolie sold 481.19K tickets (including 80.29K in Hindi), while War 2 managed 393.43K tickets in the same period. Even without the Hindi version, Coolie’s sales are significantly higher, clearly indicating that audiences are showing more interest in Coolie.

Sunday remains crucial for both films, as today’s numbers will determine which one can dominate the box office further.

Since no big films are releasing for the rest of the month, both Coolie and War 2 have room to keep running in theatres and add to their collections.

Rajinikanth’s Coolie, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, and Hrithik Roshan–Jr NTR’s War 2, directed by Ayan Mukerji, are in a tight box office race. We’ll have to wait and see how the numbers shape up in the coming days.

Two big-ticket entertainers, War 2 and Coolie, locked horns at the box office this Thursday. While Coolie took the lead over War 2 globally, the NTR and Hrithik Roshan starrer posted higher numbers than the Rajinikanth starrer in the Telugu states, thanks to NTR’s immense star power.

Although War 2 outperformed Coolie at the Nizam box office on opening day, the tables turned on day 2, with Coolie taking a healthy lead over the Bollywood spy action thriller. Coolie earned a distributor share of Rs. 3.7 crore, while War 2 collected Rs. 3 crore share on the second day.

In the Nizam region, the 2-day collections stand at Rs. 7.85 crore share for Coolie and Rs. 7.25 crore share for War 2. Today and tomorrow are expected to be crucial for both films. With a major national holiday just passed, trade pundits predict drops for both films. Let’s see how War 2 and Coolie will perform in these two days.
