Superstar Rajinikanth’s Coolie is slated for a grand release during the Independence Day weekend, clashing with Hrithik Roshan and NTR’s War 2. The gangster action drama, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, features Tollywood King Nagarjuna as the antagonist.
The film continues to make waves in the USA, with pre-sales witnessing massive growth each day. According to the latest update from the North American distributor, Coolie has sold over 40,000 tickets for premieres alone in this region, including the Telugu version. Coolie has already scripted history by becoming the fastest Tamil film to earn $1 million in North America.
At this pace, it will be a piece of cake for Coolie to surpass the all-time highest Kollywood premiere grosser Kabali, which raked in $1.86 million. Backed by Sun Pictures, Coolie also stars Aamir Khan, Shruti Haasan, Soubin Shahir, Sathyaraj, and others in key roles.
