Jana Nayagan is likely to skip its January 9 release date as CBFC certification remains pending. Judicial proceedings are underway with a verdict expected on January 9.

Despite a record-shattering opening weekend, Rajinikanth and Lokesh Kanagaraj’s Coolie has seen a shocking drop in collections during the weekdays. Here’s a detailed breakdown of the film’s box office performance and why it has underperformed.
Rajinikanth’s Coolie is setting records across India, but the Hindi version is struggling. After an opening weekend of ₹18 crore nett, the film crashed on Monday with just ₹1.50 crore, taking its total to ₹19.50 crore nett. The sharp drop confirms that Coolie (Hindi) is heading towards a flop verdict even as the film dominates in South markets.
Rajinikanth’s ‘Coolie’ has taken the Indian box office by storm, wrapping up its extended four-day weekend with a colossal Rs. 227.25 crore. The film now stands as the second-highest weekend grosser in Kollywood history, despite showing mixed collection trends.
