Jailer Strikes Box Office Gold: First Day Worldwide Gross Sets Records
The global cinema landscape is ablaze with the resounding success of “Jailer,” the triumphant comeback vehicle of Superstar Rajinikanth. This Nelson Dilipkumar-directed spectacle, which made its grand debut just a day ago, has sent shockwaves through box offices around the world.
According to the latest insights provided by astute trade analysts, “Jailer” amassed around a staggering 90 crore rupees on its inaugural day, establishing a new benchmark for Tamil films. This remarkable feat marks only the third occasion in history when a Tamil cinematic gem has breached the 90-crore milestone on its very first day. It’s worth noting that the other two films to achieve this remarkable distinction were none other than Rajinikanth’s own masterpieces, “2.0” and “Kabali.”
The awe-inspiring success of “Jailer” is not confined to a singular territory; it’s a phenomenon that transcends borders. In Kerala, the film etched its name in history by commanding an extraordinary opening-day collection of approximately 5.5 crores, solidifying its place as the highest-grossing Rajinikanth movie in the region. Meanwhile, in Tamil Nadu, the film blazed past its contemporaries by amassing a remarkable 20-crore opening, a remarkable achievement in the year 2023, surpassing the records set by “Thunivu” and “Varisu.”
Venturing into Telugu states, “Jailer” carved its own path of destruction, reaping a staggering 12 crore rupees in its wake. Not to be outdone, the film dominated Karnataka, setting an impressive precedent as the biggest Tamil film opener of 2023. Beyond these accomplishments, the film replicated its success in the Rest of India market and beyond, underscoring its universal appeal.
However, the film’s global conquest doesn’t end there. Overseas markets have proven to be a veritable goldmine for “Jailer,” with resounding success stories pouring in from USA, UK, Australia, and New Zealand. The sound of money bells ringing at these international box offices underscores the magnetic pull that Rajinikanth’s charisma and cinematic prowess wield on a global scale.
