Kabali’s 8-year-old record of premiere collection in danger?
Today, the trailer of Coolie will be out, and it is expected to boost bookings further. So, very soon, the $1 million mark will be touched. The way the film is moving ahead, it has an outside chance of breaking the 8-year-old record of Kabali (2016), which amassed an unbelievable $1.92 million through North American premieres.
Kabali still holds the record for Kollywood’s highest premiere collection at the North American box office. With crazy hype all around, Rajinikanth‘s upcoming biggie might topple it, but the task won’t be that easy. It’ll be interesting to see how the film picks up in pre-sales after the trailer release.
