Notes :
↑ Box office gross values of ₹ 6–6.75 billion were reported for Kabali in its first 13 days,[4] [5] which were more than double the estimates made by other sources.[6] International Business Times (IBT) and Firstpost criticized these estimates as inflated, explaining the discrepancy as due in part to the addition of "pre-release business" figures, such as music and satellite rights sales of ₹ 2 billion,[7] being factored into the box office sales totals.[6] Firstpost wrote, "More conservative estimates put Kabali’s collections at around Rs [3 billion] from worldwide ticket sales."[7] IBT's analysts estimated the film's worldwide gross total at around ₹ 3.5 billion (US$49 million).[8]
