Crossing the ₹150 crore worldwide gross mark is considered a major achievement for any Tamil film (thanks to the great audience reception and fast expanding international reach of Kollywood). Coolie shows that Tamil cinema is finding a bigger audience in overseas markets and its fan bases are growing year after year (the number of tourists is growing).
The performance of the film has also reignited the discussion about the changing box office landscape in South Indian cinema. With big movies, big action movies and star driven movies, big-budget movies are still playing in theatres and it is that kind of movie numbers that are not only impressive but also very good at that time as well.
Coolie has set the bar high now that we are getting closer to the next movie: Jailer 2. The sequel has already created high hopes among movie fans who are wondering if it will be able to deliver on the commercial success to the previous one and establish its own box office high.
Jailer 2 is so popular because the original Jailer got so many awards and was so popular in its performances, action scenes and mass appeal. Now we expect that the sequel will have a bigger movie and bigger movies.
Social media has become a forum for comparisons between the two films and fans are eagerly debating if Jailer 2 has the potential to rewrite box office history. Coolie and Jailer 2 hashtags have become popular and that is an indication of the way in which Tamil cinema is celebrating its biggest releases.
The industry experts believe that solid advance bookings and marketing campaigns as well as positive audience word of mouth will determine whether Jailer 2 can stand up to Coolie's record performance. Foreign markets will also shape the commercial prospects of the film significantly.
As Kollywood expands its global presence the competition between major releases (and its box office share) is increasingly high. In each film we have not only an experience of storytelling and production quality but we also have a high expectation for future films.
We will see in the end whether Jailer 2 will eventually succeed as a strong rival to Coolie. But one thing is certain— the energy of both films is that of the crowd of Tamil cinema and the power of Tamil cinema to sell itself to anyone around the world. When the next great box office show is ready to take place and the race for cinema supremacy is going to continue to be one of the most eagerly awaited in the Indian movie universe, it will be a great story to watch.
