Nagarjuna responded with equal excitement, thanking Lokesh Kanagaraj for the opportunity. He mentioned his long-standing desire to collaborate with the director, who previously impressed audiences with “Kaithi.” Nagarjuna also expressed his eagerness to work alongside Rajinikanth, affectionately known as “Thalaivar” (the leader).
“Coolie” is being produced by Sun Pictures, under the banner of Kalanidhi Maran. The film is generating buzz not only because of its star-studded cast but also due to the recent addition of actor Soubin Shahir, known for his role in “Manjummel Boys.”
In addition to “Coolie,” Nagarjuna is also gearing up for his role in the social drama “Kubera.” His first look from this film was revealed earlier in May, further heightening anticipation for his upcoming projects.
As fans eagerly await both films, the collaboration of these prominent actors and filmmakers promises to bring fresh and exciting content to the screen.
