With less than 10 days to go for the massive release of Rajinikanth's Coolie worldwide, director Lokesh Kanagaraj was recently seen in an interview with Sun TV, the television network of the production company Sun Pictures.
In the show, Lokesh, to a question about the moment in Coolie he is excited about, said he is waiting to watch the interval scene with Rajinikanth fans. "This feels like a dream. Growing up a Kamal sir fan, making a film with him and now with Rajini sir. Imagine the amount of meticulous work that would have gone into the film. The interval scene is my favourite and I can't wait to watch it with fans".
He also described the two-year journey of Coolie as a fond memory, as this is the biggest star-cast he has worked with.
Produced by Kalanithi Maran under his Sun Pictures banner, Coolie boasts a star-studded ensemble consisting of Nagarjuna as Simon, Sathyaraj as Rajasekar, Upendra as Kaleesha, Shruti Haasan as Preethi, and Soubin Shahir as Dayal. Rajinikanth plays Deva in the film. Confirming speculations, it was revealed that Aamir Khan will play Dahaa in Coolie. The film is a reunion of sorts as Rajini teams up with Sathyaraj 38 years after Mr Bharath and Aamir Khan 29 years after Aatank Hi Aatank.
The rest of the technical crew consists of cinematography by Girish Gangadharan, editing by Philomin Raj, and stunts by Anbariv. The film's dialogues are written by Lokesh and Chandhru Anbazhagan, who have also contributed to the additional screenplay.
Coolie is releasing on August 14 in Tamil, Hindi, Telugu, and Kannada.
