Rajinikanth’s 'Jailer 2' Breaches ₹800 Crore Globally as 'Udta Teer' Holds Strong Momentum
Megastar Rajinikanth has once again proven his unparalleled box office dominance as the blockbuster action spectacle Jailer 2 roared past the monumental ₹800 crore benchmark worldwide on its third weekend. Capitalizing on strong Sunday footfalls on November 1, 2026, the high-octane entertainer displayed extraordinary theatrical endurance across domestic single screens and global multiplex chains alike, extending its winning streak even as theaters prepare for the mega festive arrival of Ramayana on November 5. Meanwhile, mid-budget releases in the ecosystem witnessed divergent fortunes over the weekend, with Ayushmann Khurrana's Udta Teer showing positive growth while competitor titles like Prahaar and Nayyi Navelli struggled to mount significant counter-programming numbers.
Rajinikanth Dominates the Marquee: Day 19 Sunday Surge Pushes Domestic Net to ₹456.30 Crore
On its 19th theatrical day, Jailer 2 leveraged family holiday crowds to register a sharp upward swing, pulling in ₹11.20 crore on Sunday following a sturdy Saturday haul of ₹9.70 crore. This late-stage weekend boost has officially elevated the film's cumulative Indian domestic net earnings to a massive ₹456.30 crore, positioning the sequel firmly within striking distance of the elusive ₹500 crore domestic milestone. Internationally, the film continues to generate historic numbers across overseas circuits in North America, Malaysia, the Gulf, and the United Kingdom, formally catapulting the production into the elite global tier with an aggregate worldwide gross of ₹807.25 crore.
Ayushmann Khurrana’s 'Udta Teer' Gains Ground While 'Prahaar' and 'Nayyi Navelli' Stumble
In the Hindi theatrical space, the satirical drama Udta Teer, featuring Ayushmann Khurrana alongside Sara Ali Khan, capitalized effectively on positive word of mouth to mount an encouraging second-weekend performance. The film collected ₹4.35 crore on Sunday after posting ₹4.00 crore on Saturday, pushing its 10-day cumulative net collection to a respectable ₹42.10 crore. Conversely, earlier mid-October offerings encountered steep box office fatigue on their 18th day in cinemas; Yami Gautam’s Nayyi Navelli managed only ₹40 lakh on Sunday to bring its lifetime domestic tally to ₹26.75 crore, while Rajkummar Rao’s action-drama Prahaar took in ₹65 lakh over the same frame, settling at an aggregate domestic net of ₹23.25 crore amid screen reallocations.
