Whenever a Rajinikanth film hits the screens, it is nothing short of a festival for his fans. However, things are different with Kaala. After a mild pre-release buzz, Kaala released today in thousands of screens around the world.In the US, Rajini’s strong forte, Kaala collected USD 512K from the Wednesday night premieres. These are the gross collections for the film’s Tamil, Telugu and Hindi versions from 298 locations and some locations are yet to be reported.
Despite surpassing the half a million milestone with the premieres alone, Kaala’s opening collections fall heavily short of Kabali’s premiere collections (USD 1.925M). Kaala collecting only 1/4th of Kabali’s premieres has left the trade and fans dismayed.
Kaala’s US premiere collections are making everyone wonder if the brand Rajini is losing its shine at the box office. Rajini has stepped into active politics and some of his statements on the political issues in the state are adversely affecting his image.
