Jailer Box Office Collection Day 3: Rajinikanth film crosses lifetime biz of Vikram in US

Rajinikanth’s Jailer has caused quite a stir at the worldwide box office. Despite competition from Bollywood releases like Sunny Deol starrer Gadar 2 and Akshay Kumar’s OMG 2, Jailer has managed to find its audience. After its third day at the box office, Jailer has collected huge numbers at the Tamil Nadu and worldwide box office. 

3 things you need to know:
