Jailer 2 crosses ₹424 crore worldwide in four days

The Sunday jump everyone was waiting for

After a dip on Friday, Jailer 2 found its rhythm again over the weekend. The Nelson Dilipkumar action sequel collected ₹55.85 crore net in India on Sunday, an 18.2% rise over Saturday’s ₹47.25 crore, according to Sacnilk data cited by The Times of India.

The jump pushed the film’s four-day India net total to ₹199.90 crore, with domestic gross at ₹234.25 crore. Worldwide, the picture is even bigger: ₹424.25 crore gross across India and overseas markets.

How the numbers break down

The Sunday audience showed up in force — 62% occupancy across 15,473 shows, and 3.69 million footfalls on the day alone.

• Tamil version: ₹39.95 cr from 8,173 shows at 80% occupancy
• Telugu version: ₹9.50 cr from 2,234 shows at 64.3% occupancy
• Hindi version: ₹5.75 cr from 4,902 shows at 31% occupancy
• Kannada version: ₹0.65 cr from 164 shows at 61% occupancy

Overseas keeps the engine running

Day 4 brought ₹40 crore from international markets, taking the cumulative overseas gross to ₹190 crore. That is the real story for a Rajinikanth film: his box office pull travels well beyond the Tamil heartland.

For readers who track the southern industries as closely as Bollywood, this is a reminder that a Tamil tentpole can set the pace. The Tamil version’s 80% occupancy on Sunday shows the home market is carrying this sequel, with Telugu, Hindi and Kannada adding layers on top.

A star moment for Shamna Kasim

Beyond the box office, actor Shamna Kasim thanked fans for their response to her dance appearance in the film. In a social media video, she credited director Nelson Dilipkumar, producer Kalanithi Maran and composer Anirudh Ravichander, and spoke about sharing screen space with Rajinikanth.

“Everyone would like to share screen space with a style icon such as Rajinikanth sir. I never thought that I would have that opportunity,” she said.
