Shruti Haasan on Coolie and Rajinikanth. Rajinikanth is starring in Coolie under the direction of Lokesh Kanagaraj. The film stars Nagarjuna and Satyaraj in powerful roles. The film also stars Aamir Khan in a powerful cameo.
Shruti Haasan is playing an important role in the film and speaking to scribes, Shruti shared her experience. She said "Now I got the other perspective, I get to hear Rajni sir's stories. I was hearing one side for like 30 plus years and now I get to hear the other perspective. So the lot of people thought that the families were very close but we really weren't. We dint really had that interaction while growing up; I think I must have met him like a hello hi just for 3-4 times in my entire life, so I had no idea who this person beyond the persona was. To me he was Rajni sir like everybody else but it was really wonderful to getting to know him and working with him and he is so different to papa. He is a mix of everything, he is extremely humble and extremely sharp notices everything, he seems extremely non judgemental but is very clear about how he does things. It's really amalgamation of qualities and just very kind to everyone on set, just a pleasure working with him."
She recollected "He told me once that, 'Thank God for your dad or else I could have hurt myself really badly. Your dad was passing by once and said what you are doing up, I said I am suppose to jump and he said you are not suppose to jump without mattress. He went and bought the mattress and told me how to jump, so I am always thankful to Kamal for that."
Coolie is slated for a grand release on 14 Aug 2025. The film was shot in Chennai, Hyderabad, Visakhapatnam, Jaipur and Bangkok in a lavish manner.
