Having had a gargantuan worldwide release, 'Kabali' was expected to break old records and create new ones from the beginning. While the pre-release business touched an astronomical Rs. 200-cr figure, the premieres in US alone have clocked an unprecedented figure.

Guess what? It's is pegged at USD 2 million (for Telugu and Tamil combined), something which any other Indian actor will take weeks on end to accomplish! This shows the stamina of Rajini, the much-celebrated "last superstar of Indian cinema".

Released in a mind-boggling 5000 theatres across the world, including 400 in the USA, the gangster action-drama's producer Kalaipuli S Thanu had said before the release that the film will be bigger than 'Baahubali' in terms of collections. Let's see if Thanu's prophesy will come true.
