'Jailer 2' box office collection day 2: Rajinikanth's film tops ₹200 crore worldwide; eyes Toxic's lifetime biz

Jailer 2 box office: Tamil superstar Rajinikanth's latest outing at the theatres Jailer 2 has had a fabulous Friday at the ticket counters. Rajinikanth is proving once again why he’s called the Superstar. Just two days into its release, the film has stormed past the ₹200 crore mark worldwide — a number many films take weeks to reach.

Directed by Nelson Dilipkumar, the action sequel is riding a wave of packed houses, soaring occupancy, and thunderous overseas numbers. But here’s where it gets interesting: trade watchers are now drawing comparisons to Yash’s Toxic.

Can Jailer 2 not just match but blow past that lifetime total — and how soon? With Day 2 collections already signalling a stronger hold than its predecessor, the numbers suggest this could be one of 2026’s biggest Tamil blockbusters. Here’s a full breakdown of where the film stands right now.
