Share


Lokesh Kanagaraj has quickly established himself as one of the most successful and influential directors in South Indian cinema. Representing the new wave of filmmakers, he has already collaborated with legends like Rajinikanth, Kamal Haasan, Vijay, Suriya, and Karthi despite his relatively small filmography. His latest outing, Coolie, is currently in theatres and has sparked a fresh debate on social media, with many hailing him as a true trendsetter.

During the promotions, Lokesh cleverly released a few intriguing back-face shots from the film, which generated massive hype and excitement. With a star-studded cast and the promise of a gripping flashback sequence, expectations for Coolie were sky-high.

Post-release, while the film has received a mixed response overall, the much-talked-about flashback sequence turned out to be a paisa vasool moment for fans. Shot in a unique negative-style format, it gave audiences an unexpected thrill and has become one of the most celebrated highlights of the film.

Fans have already started creating fresh edits on social media, celebrating their beloved Thalaivar Rajinikanth. Adding to the buzz, Lokesh has been widely appreciated for successfully pulling off de-aging technology on screen, making Rajinikanth’s younger version look impactful. Many believe he has set a new trend with this technique, one that other filmmakers are likely to follow.

Starring Rajinikanth in the lead role, Coolie also features Shruti Haasan, Nagarjuna, and Soubin Shahir in key roles, further adding to the film’s appeal.
