Rajinikanth’s 3-Minute Monologue in ‘Coolie’ Promises to Set Theatres on Fire

By TeluguFunda / August 6, 2025

Superstar Rajinikanth will deliver a power-packed 3-minute monologue in his upcoming film Coolie, which will stand out as one of the biggest highlights of the movie. Co-writer Chandru confirmed that this intense long dialogue will create a “blast in theatres” and will remind fans of Rajinikanth’s iconic monologue from Annamalai. The scene has already sparked excitement among fans and industry insiders, adding even more buzz to one of the year’s most anticipated releases.

Director Lokesh Kanagaraj, who earlier impressed with Maanagaram, uses a hyperlink and interlink format once again in Coolie. This storytelling style connects multiple characters and storylines in a clever way that keeps the film engaging. Lokesh and Chandhru Anbazhagan have jointly crafted the screenplay to strike a fine balance between action and emotion.

Coolie Brings Back Big Stars and Exciting Pairings

Coolie features a powerful cast. Rajinikanth plays Deva, while Nagarjuna appears as Simon, Sathyaraj as Rajasekar, Upendra as Kaleesha, Shruti Haasan as Preethi, and Soubin Shahir as Dayal. The filmmakers surprised fans by confirming Aamir Khan as Dahaa, marking his first collaboration with Lokesh Kanagaraj. The film reunites Rajinikanth with Sathyaraj after 38 years and with Aamir Khan after 29 years, bringing a nostalgic touch for longtime fans.

Shruti Haasan Talks About Her Character

In an interview, Shruti Haasan described her character in Coolie as a symbol of quiet resilience. She denied all rumours about performing action scenes and explained that her role brings a balanced feminine presence to the male-dominated storyline. This project marks her first film with both Rajinikanth and Lokesh, following her earlier collaboration with Lokesh in the music video Inimel.

Lokesh Adds ‘Monica’ Song for Commercial Impact

Director Lokesh Kanagaraj revealed during a promotional event that he included the song ‘Monica’, featuring Pooja Hegde and Soubin Shahir, purely for commercial reasons. Unlike the song Kaavaalaa from Jailer, where Rajinikanth had the opportunity to dance, Coolie didn’t offer such scope. Lokesh clarified that Soubin’s character created the right situation for this special number, although he usually avoids such songs in his films.

Coolie Smashes Advance Booking Records

Coolie has taken a phenomenal start in advance ticket sales. According to Bollywood Hungama, fans in the US have already bought 1.2 million dollars worth of tickets, putting it far ahead of War 2 starring Hrithik Roshan and NTR Jr, which has earned only 205K dollars so far. This strong start shows the massive global interest in Rajinikanth’s latest film.

Coolie to Release on August 14 in Multiple Languages

Kalanithi Maran is producing Coolie under the Sun Pictures banner. The team will release the film on August 14, 2025, in Tamil, Hindi, Telugu, and Kannada. With its intense performances, unique storytelling, and Rajinikanth’s explosive monologue, Coolie is set to dominate the box office this Independence Day.
