Can Coolie beat Kabali? Rajinikanth’s Box Office battle in USA premiere pre-sales heats up!
Superstar Rajinikanth’s upcoming film Coolie is already setting the stage for a historic release. With nearly three weeks to go before it hits screens, the film has crossed a major milestone – $500,000 in USA premiere pre-sales, demonstrating the phenomenal anticipation surrounding the project and the enduring box-office pull of the Thalaivar.
With 18 days still remaining, the pre-sales momentum is only accelerating. Industry insiders suggest that Coolie has a solid shot at overtaking Kabali’s North American premiere record. Released in 2016, Kabali raked in $1.92 million from premiere shows in the USA, setting a new benchmark for Indian cinema. While several Telugu films have since gone beyond that mark, no Tamil film has managed to top it, until now.
Advance bookings for Coolie are seeing a steep daily rise, and projections now place the film well on course to surpass the $2 million mark. Much of that hinges on the buzz generated by the trailer, which fans won’t have to wait long for.
The trailer of Coolie is set to drop on August 2nd during the film’s grand audio launch event, an occasion that is expected to amplify hype even further. If the trailer lands with the impact many expect, the film could easily blow past existing records and set a new high for Kollywood in North America.
One thing is certain: Superstar Rajinikanth is making a thunderous return, and Coolie is poised to become a defining moment for Indian cinema on the global stage.
