Lokesh Kanagaraj is one of the biggest directors in the country right now and is gearing up for his new film Coolie, starring Rajinikanth and Nagarjuna.
His previous films are known to be connected through the Lokesh Kanagaraj Universe, but reports have surfaced that Kamal Haasan will be seen in a cameo in Coolie, establishing a link between Vikram and the Rajini film.
However, speaking to Bharadwaj Rangan, Lokesh clarified that Coolie is a standalone film and has no connection to his cinematic universe.
“I did not want to bring Kamal sir into Coolie, nor would I bring Rajini sir into Vikram. Coolie is a one-of-a-kind film written specifically for Rajini sir,” said Lokesh. Coolie releases on August 14, 2025.
