Directed by Lokesh Kangraj, Cool was released in theaters on August 14, 2025, which matched the Independence Day weekend. The Tamil action thriller led by Rajinikanth was dubbed in Telugu, Hindi and Kannada languages. After its extended weekends, the Calli looks like to slip at the Kollywood box office.
Coulie receives Rs 4.25 crore in Tamil Nadu markets at 6 days 6
Built under the banner of Sun Pictures, Cool maintained an excellent grip in his expanded early weekends in Tamil Nadu. Rajinikanth -led film collected a gross of Rs 96 crore including Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. It is one of the top 3 Kollywood films, which had the first four-day collections of all time in its home state.
The action thriller first saw a major decline on Monday, collecting only 6 crore rupees. Now, according to estimates, the number went ahead to Rs 4.25 crore on the first Tuesday.
Cool has crossed a mark of Rs 100 crore at the Kollywood box office, while a cum of Rs 106.25 crore has brought a gross collection.
| Day | Gross collection |
| First weekend extended | 96 crores rupees |
| First Monday | 6 crores rupees |
| First Tuesday | 4.25 crores rupees |
| Total | 106.25 crores |
Cool will struggle to enter a club of Rs 150 crore in the state
By going from the trends, it is unlikely that Cool will be able to smash at a club of Rs 150 crore in Tamil Nadu. Based on the opening, it was working for more than Rs 200 crore in the state.
Lokesh Kanagaraja’s latest direction, which clashed with War 2, would be considered as a film that did not match its capacity. With Rajinikanth’s star power and a good word of mouth, it can be the highest grossing Tamil film ever. However, the recently released action thriller will now end in the top six highest grossing films in Kollywood. Coulie can touch the top 5 list, but it’s going to be tight.
Cool is a big hit according to cool. But it will be seen as a magnificent artist.
