Superstar Rajinikanth is rewriting Tamil cinema records again. Jailer 2 has crossed the Rs 400 crore mark in India, and the numbers keep climbing. Here’s a clear look at how the film is performing.
Jailer 2: Milestones
| Milestone | Detail |
|---|---|
| 10-day India gross | About Rs 416 crore |
| Tamil film rank | Fourth Tamil film past Rs 400 crore, after 2.0, Jailer and Leo |
| Current position | Second behind 2.0, expected to take the top spot |
| 2nd weekend (India) | About Rs 443 crore |
| 12-day India gross | About Rs 454 crore |
| Worldwide | Reported as the first Kollywood film to reach Rs 700 crore |
A Superb Second Saturday
On its second Saturday, the film collected roughly Rs 26 crore, a 60 per cent jump over the previous day. The week-on-week drop was about 50 per cent, which Pinkvilla calls a fantastic hold for a South Indian film, especially one that opened this big.

Day-Wise India Gross (Estimates)
| Day | Gross |
|---|---|
| Thursday (Day 1) | Rs 67.50 crore |
| Friday | Rs 42.25 crore |
| Saturday | Rs 52 crore |
| Sunday | Rs 61.50 crore |
| Monday | Rs 48.25 crore |
| Tuesday | Rs 52.50 crore |
| Wednesday | Rs 31.50 crore |
| Thursday | Rs 18.50 crore |
| 2nd Friday | Rs 16 crore |
| 2nd Saturday | Rs 26 crore |
| Total | Rs 416 crore |
Where the Money Comes From?
| Territory | Gross |
|---|---|
| Tamil Nadu | Rs 155.50 crore |
| Andhra Pradesh and Telangana | Rs 78.50 crore |
| Karnataka | Rs 72.75 crore |
| Kerala | Rs 67.75 crore |
| Rest of India | Rs 41.50 crore |
Karnataka Is the Surprise
Tamil Nadu has crossed Rs 150 crore and is on track for Rs 200 crore, but the standout is Karnataka. The film is headed for a final total above Rs 90 crore there, which would beat several big pan-India blockbusters, including Pushpa 2, RRR, Kalki 2898 AD and Jawan.
Conclusion
What impresses me most isn’t the opening, it’s the staying power. A 50 per cent weekly drop is healthy for a film this size, and the strong Saturday jump shows audiences are still turning up. If the pace holds, the Kollywood record looks within reach.
