Coolie vs War 2: Nizam Box Office Battle

The box office witnessed a massive clash this Thursday with the release of two big-ticket entertainers – Rajinikanth’s Coolie and NTR–Hrithik Roshan’s War 2. While Coolie dominated globally, War 2 initially had the upper hand in the Telugu states, especially due to NTR’s strong pull.

On opening day, War 2 outperformed Coolie in the Nizam region. However, the momentum shifted on day 2, with Coolie bouncing back strongly.

Nizam Collections

• Day 2 Share:

  • Coolie – ₹3.7 Cr

  • War 2 – ₹3 Cr

• 2-Day Total (Nizam Share):

  • Coolie – ₹7.85 Cr

  • War 2 – ₹7.25 Cr

With this turnaround, Coolie has taken a healthy lead in the Nizam box office race.

What’s Next?

Trade analysts note that with the Independence Day holiday rush now over, both films might witness drops in collections over the weekend. The next two days will be crucial in determining whether Coolie can consolidate its lead or if War 2 stages a comeback.
