Coolie vs War 2 Box Office Day 17 (Early Trends): Rajinikanth Starrer Registers Over 120% Higher Collection Than YRF’s Biggie, But Does It Even Matter?

The result of the high voltage between Rajinikanth’s Coolie and Hrithik Roshan-Jr NTR’s War 2 is very much out now, and it’s really disheartening. Both films were among the biggest Indian movies of 2025, but unfortunately, their performance at the Indian box office hasn’t been up to the mark. Both films are made on a massive budget and are heading towards a losing verdict. Let’s find out how they fared on the third Saturday, day 17!

Due to the absence of any major Kollywood release, the Rajinikanth starrer retained decent screen count for itself in the third week. On the other hand, the Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR starrer lost a significant number of screens to Param Sundari. If we talk about the occupancy battle, the Tamil action thriller fared much better than YRF’s actioner.

Coolie defeats War 2 on day 17

With a better occupancy, Coolie has closed its day 17 with better numbers, with early trends suggesting a collection of 2.65-2.7 crores. Speaking about War 2, it’s much below with an estimated collection of 1.15-1.2 crores. If we compare the difference, Rajini’s film raked in 120.83-134.78% higher collection than the Bollywood actioner.
