“Coolie,” an action thriller also starring the legendary Rajinikanth in his 171st film role, is being produced by Sun Pictures. The film, which has generated significant anticipation among fans, features music composed by Anirudh Ravichander. The action sequences are being choreographed by the renowned duo Anbumani and Arivumani, known collectively as Anbariv.

Kanagaraj’s plea comes as a reminder of the impact of leaks on the film industry, where the element of surprise and the integrity of the narrative are crucial for audience engagement. “Coolie” is set to hit the screens next year, promising a visual spectacle for fans of action cinema.
