The Rajinikanth action entertainer has entered its second week but continues to churn big numbers at the ticket counters.
The film collected ₹10 crore nett in India for all languages on Thursday as per early estimates, as reported by sources.
Directed by Nelson Dilipkumar, Jailer stands at a 8-day total of ₹235.65 crore.
Jailer hit the screens worldwide on August 10 with an opening figure of ₹48 crore nett in India in all languages.
It slowed down on weekdays but gained momentum on Sunday with collection of ₹ 42 crore.
After collecting ₹ 36.5 crore on the Independence Day on Tuesday, it slowed down once again with ₹15 crore on Wednesday and ₹10 crore on Thursday.
Looking at the craze for the film, it is clear it will comfortably cross the ₹250 crore mark in few days and will then aim for the ₹300 crore mark.
Jailer is little behind Sunny Deol's Gadar 2, which released a day later and currently stands at ₹283 crore.
Collectively, both the films, along with Akshay Kumar's OMG 2, are contributing in boosting the film business once again after the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020.
