Superstar
Rajinikanth
answered
all
his
critics
and
put
doubts
to
rest
as
producer
'Kalaipuli'
S
Thanu
made
the
announcement
of
the
decade,
which
could
easily
turn
out
to
be
the
announcement
of
the
century.
"It
is
the
best
collection
an
Indian
actor
has
ever
had.
It
shows
that
there
is
only
one
superstar
and
that
is
Rajinikanth," he
said
talking
about
Kabali's
unprecedented
record
at
the
box
office
in
India
and
overseas.

what

and

experts
are
saying
about
Kabali
box
office:
In
what
looks
like
an
opening
which
no
other
Indian
movie
could
possibly
achieve
in
the
near
future,
Kabali
has
reportedly
collected
a
staggering
250
Crore
rupees
in
India
alone
from
its
first
two
days
(Friday
and
Saturday).
"In
India,
the
film
has
earned
Rs
250
crore,
which
includes
Rs
100
crore
from
Tamil
Nadu
and
Rs
150
crore
from
places
outside
the
state
in
India,"
the
makers
of
Kabali
said
in
a
statement,
adding
that
the
Pa
Ranjith
directorial
has
approximately
collected
100
Crore
rupees
from
outside
India.
This
takes
the
overall
box
office
collections
of
Kabali,
from
its
opening
weekend,
to
an
outrageous
350
Crore
rupees,
smashing
all
records
in
the
process
to
become
the
highest
Indian
opening
grosser.
The
numbers
include
collections
made
from
the
film's
premiere
shows
all
over
the
world.
Kabali
broke
the
records
held
by
the
"three
Khans
of
Bollywood" and
SS
Rajamouli's
magnum
opus
Baahubali.
What
really
stands
out
in
the
whole
episode
is
the
margin
by
which
the
Rajinikanth-starrer
has
beaten
its
contemporaries
at
the
box
office.
While
Baahubali
had
reportedly
collected
42.1
Crores
(net
income)
in
India
from
all
its
three
languages,
Salman
Khan's
recently
released
Sultan
had
managed
to
gather
36.54
Crores.
Sharukh
Khan's
Happy
New
Year
now
takes
the
second
slot
with
a
distant
44.97
Crores
and
Salman's
Prem
Ratan
Dhan
Payo
at
the
fourth
position
with
a
decent
40.35
Crore
rupees.
It
is
to
be
noted
that
the
film,
bankrolled
by
Thanu,
opened
to
mixed
reviews
with
critics
blaming
the
film's
'weak'
narration.
In
spite
of
attracting
mostly
average
reviews,
Kabali
has
taken
the
worldwide
box
office
by
storm
and
conquering
Indian
cinema
box
office,
without
even
breaking
a
sweat!
