August 14th is going to be a holiday for all Rajini fans! But I'm curious why they're releasing two Rajini films so close together. Hope it doesn't affect the hype for either movie.

The cast looks amazing! Nagarjuna and Rajini together after so long ❤️ And Shruti Haasan too! This is going to be one epic combination.

While I'm excited, I hope the story lives up to the hype. Recent Rajini films have been hit or miss. Fingers crossed Lokesh delivers another Vikram-level masterpiece!

Interesting that they're calling it "Coolie" - wonder if it's connected to the 1983 film in any way. Either way, Rajini + Lokesh combo is bound to be explosive!
