Rajinikanth's highly anticipated film Coolie is making waves with its phenomenal advance booking numbers. With just a few days to go before its release on August 14, 2025, the film has already crossed ₹50 crore in worldwide day-one advance bookings.
This impressive feat is a testament to the film's massive appeal, thanks to Rajinikanth's star power and Lokesh Kanagaraj's direction. The movie's strategic release during the Independence Day weekend is expected to further boost its box office performance.
Coolie's international market performance has been remarkable, with pre-sales exceeding ₹37 crore and inching closer to the ₹50 crore milestone. Industry insiders predict that the film could deliver one of the biggest single-day grossers ever for an Indian movie, potentially surpassing ₹100 crore in pre-sales before its release.
Domestically, the film has sold over 1 lakh tickets within hours of opening advance bookings, with Tamil Nadu and Kerala leading the charge. The film's ensemble cast, including Nagarjuna, Soubin Shahir, Upendra, and Shruti Haasan, adds to its anticipation. With its promising advance booking numbers, Coolie is poised to become one of the biggest hits of the year.
