Amidst the stellar box office performance of *Drishyam 3*, Rajinikanth’s pan-India release, *Jailer 2*, has now arrived in theaters. Released on October 15, this action-drama has shattered the records of several major films right out of the gate. See the figures below to find out how much *Jailer 2* earned on its opening day at the domestic box office.

*Jailer 2* – First-day earnings across all languages
According to reports from Sacnilk.com, *Jailer 2*—one of Rajinikanth’s biggest films—made a massive impact, raking in a net opening of ₹60 crore at the domestic box office. The makers released the film in five languages: Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Malayalam.

Given that Rajinikanth is a superstar in the Tamil film industry, the movie saw a spectacular opening in its regional language; it grossed ₹43.35 crore in Tamil on its first day. In the Telugu-speaking market, the film earned ₹12.50 crore, while the Hindi version brought in ₹3.50 crore.

In the Kannada-speaking market, the film earned ₹35 lakh. While the movie had a strong start, it failed to surpass the opening-day record set by *Drishyam 3* at the domestic box office, despite being released in five languages.

*Jailer 2* breaks records for several films on its very first day
The magic of *Jailer 2*—which saw a high-octane, grand opening—wasn't limited to India; the film has also performed exceptionally well at the worldwide box office. On its very first day—Friday—*Jailer 2* raked in 125.55 crore globally, with 55 crore of that total coming from overseas markets.

With this opening-day performance, *Jailer 2* has broken the records of not just one, but two major films starring Thalapathy Vijay. In terms of first-day earnings, it has surpassed both *Jan Nayakan* and *The Greatest of All Time*. Furthermore, the film has also broken the record set by *Vikram*. In the overseas market, *Jailer 2* has outperformed both *Dhurandhar 2* and *Drishyam 3*.
