Coolie: A hit or miss?
“Through a masterful opening sequence, Coolie catapults the audience into the midst of a high-octane chase scene through the bustling streets of Hyderabad. It is here, amidst the cacophony of sounds and a flurry of movements, that we meet the unassuming coolie with a secret identity and a heart of gold”- the stereotype is what Rajinikanth does the best. But, the most redeeming factor about this is his ability to bring back an authentic character that captures the audiences’ hearts.
This is not just another role for Rajinikanth; it is a testament to his undying charisma and the relentless innovation of Indian cinema. Originally meant to be titled Thalaivar 171, marking the master’s 171st film as a lead actor, it was later changed to fit into the narrative of the action-thriller.
What to expect?
It can be expected that the film will dive into the hardships faced by the working class, serving as a social commentary on the plight of laborers in India. Coolie is the first collaboration of Rajinikanth with director Lokesh Kanagaraj. For actress Shruti Haasan,“it’s been amazing working with Rajini sir and a great learning experience!”
In an interview with Times Now News, the actress also gushed about working with filmmaker Kanagaraj before for her music video: “At the time he mentioned Coolie as a project but I did not know if it would come to fruition so I’m extremely excited that it did!” “It’s incredible to be a part of this movie and he’s an incredible director. Such a big heavy duty project but we have all had fun working on this film under his vision,”
In conclusion, Coolie is not just another action film; it is a vessel of hope, strength, and unity. As Rajinikanth usually dominates the big screen, his performance in Coolie will personify the enduring spirit of the underdog and stand as a beacon of inspiration for viewers. Coming to theatres worldwide, the film is all set to release in 2025.
