The box office battle between Coolie and War 2 in North America continued through its third day, with Rajinikanth’s Coolie maintaining a comfortable lead.
On Day 3, Coolie collected $863,000, taking its total earnings in the region to an impressive $5.64 million. Of this, the Telugu version contributed $1.63 million.
The film’s steady momentum underscores its dominance in the overseas market, where it has already broken several Tamil cinema records.
Meanwhile, War 2, starring Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR, managed $636,000 on its third day. This brought its cumulative North American total to $2.63 million, including $731,000 from the Telugu version.
While these figures are respectable, the film is still trailing significantly behind Coolie in terms of box office traction.
The contrast in collections highlights Coolie’s stronger pull among overseas audiences, particularly in Tamil and Telugu-speaking communities.
As the Independence Day weekend effects wear off, both films are now entering a crucial phase where weekday performance will determine their long-term success.
For now, Coolie continues to reign supreme in North America, with War 2 struggling to keep up in this high-profile clash.
