Coolie and War 2 are in a thrilling contest for the Telugu version in North America. Both the films are big budget and a must-see experience on the big screen.
8 days before the release, Coolie has led War 2 with a slight lead of $55,000. The advance booking of Coolie is around $225,000 while War 2 has $170,000. This contest is going to be extremely close and War 2 has the opportunity to take the lead due to the availability of premium screens.
Coolie advance booking better than War 2
The total advance booking of Coolie is over $1.2 million in North America while War 2 has $230,000. It is worth noting that War 2 is a Bollywood film and it is one of the rare films to release with a premiere in North America. Most Bollywood films release without a premiere. Depending on the success of the film, War 2 might even reduce this gap.
Coolie likely to have a bigger opening than War 2
Coolie’s global opening day collection is expected to be higher than War 2. After the announcement of both films, War 2 was believed to have a bigger opening. But now due to Coolie’s marketing and positioning, it looks to be the bigger opener. Due to the long duration of Hindi films, if both films get a similar response, War 2 may perform better. This competition is going to be very close at the box office.
War 2 and Coolie theatrical release
Both films will release on August 14, 2025, while the North America premiere will start from August 13
