There is massive hype surrounding Superstar Rajinikanth’s upcoming film Coolie, which is set to release tomorrow. The excitement isn’t limited to Tamil audiences — advance bookings in Telugu are also breaking records. While Rajinikanth’s stardom remains a key draw, director Lokesh Kanagaraj is generating equal interest among fans.

Lokesh, one of South India’s top filmmakers, gained acclaim with hits like Kaithi, Master, Vikram, and Leo, all of which performed strongly in Telugu markets as well. His Lokesh Cinematic Universe (LCU) has also cultivated a significant following among Telugu viewers.

The massive success of Vikram and Leo has cemented Lokesh’s reputation in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, on par with his Tamil stardom. With Coolie witnessing record-breaking bookings, fans are speculating that a future project with a Telugu hero could be a major box office blockbuster.

Previously, there were reports that Lokesh might collaborate with Telugu superstars like Prabhas or Ram Charan, though nothing has been confirmed yet. If the response to Coolie continues to be as sensational, it could open the doors for Lokesh to team up with Telugu heroes, similar to how Prashanth Neel partnered with Prabhas and NTR after the success of the KGF franchise.
