Development

Coolie is the first collaboration of Rajinikanth with Lokesh Kanagaraj.

During the filming for Master in late 2019, Lokesh Kanagaraj reportedly visited Rajinikanth at his residence in Chennai and discussed a potential collaboration.[5][6] The potential project was reportedly delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic and Rajinikanth's prior commitments, which included Annaatthe (2021) and Jailer (2023).[7] As a result, Lokesh began work on Vikram (2022) and Leo (2023), and Rajinikanth continued to work on Annaatthe and Jailer.[8]

In May, Lokesh was reported to have conducted a photoshoot with Rajinikanth for a potential film.[9] Subsequently, in July, Babu Antony confirmed their collaboration,[8] which was followed by Lokesh's own confirmation, for the tentatively titled Thalaivar 171.[10] On 11 September, Sun Pictures officially announced the venture through their social media platforms.[11] The project signifies Rajinikanth's maiden collaboration with Lokesh and fifth with the production house after Enthiran (2010), Petta (2019), Annaatthe and Jailer. Lokesh and Rajinikanth would reportedly receive ₹60 crore and ₹280 crore for their remuneration respectively.[12][13] Lokesh stated that the film would be a standalone film, not another entry in the Lokesh Cinematic Universe (LCU).[14] The film's official title Coolie was announced on 22 April 2024.[15] Unlike Lokesh's other films, Coolie does not revolve around drugs but gold smuggling.[16]

Pre-production

Lokesh stated that he wrote the script during the post-production of Maanagaram (2017) in 2015.[17] He also stated in December 2023 that he would not collaborate with Rathna Kumar, ending a continuous streak of three films.[18] Subsequently, he co-wrote the film's script with Chandhru Anbazhagan, whom he previously co-wrote Maanagaram with.[19] It took six months to complete the first half's script.[20][21] The team shot and completed filming for the promotional teaser by 9 April.[22]

In late-October 2023, Manoj Paramahamsa was announced as cinematographer. However, he was replaced with Girish Gangadharan, in his second collaboration with Lokesh after Vikram.[23][24] Anirudh Ravichander would score the music, in his fourth consecutive film with the director.[25] Lokesh further continued to retain most of his norm crew technicians including stunt choreography duo Anbariv,[26] editor Philomin Raj, costume designer Praveen Raja and production designer N. Sathees Kumar.[27] Lokesh stated that they would be filming with an IMAX-certified camera, rather than filming with an ordinary camera and later converting, thus making it as the first time to do so in Tamil cinema.[28]

Casting

Nagarjuna was cast as the main antagonist, marking his eighth Tamil film. Soubin Shahir would make his Tamil debut with this film. The film also marks Shruti Haasan's first collaboration with Rajinikanth.

Rajinikanth would sport salt-and-pepper shaded hairstyle and beard, reminiscing his look in Kaala (2018).[29][30] Malayalam actor Soubin Shahir was confirmed to be playing an important role,[31] in his Tamil film debut as well as first collaboration with Rajinikanth and Lokesh.[32][33] Telugu actor Nagarjuna was cast as the main antagonist, in his eighth Tamil film, and also first collaboration with Rajinikanth and Lokesh.[34] Shruti Haasan also joined the film in an important role,[35] while Sathyaraj was also cast in an important role.[36] He would reunite with Rajinikanth after a hiatus of thirty-eight years since Mr. Bharath (1986).[37] Kannada actor Upendra was cast in an important role.[38] He would make a return to Tamil cinema after Satyam (2008).[39]

Mahendran and Reba Monica John, according to sources from The Times of India, were cast in prominent roles.[40][41] Sandy, during an event in March 2024, announced his involvement in the film, reuniting with Lokesh after dance choreographing in Vikram and acting in Leo. However, he did not specify whether he would be dance choreographing or act.[42] Shobana was reported to have been cast as the female lead, pairing opposite Rajinikanth; whom she would reunite with after Thalapathi (1991).[43] Fahadh Faasil was approached to play a prominent role, but declined due to scheduling conflicts.[44] The director then approached Soubin for his role.[45]

Filming

Coolie commenced filming in Hyderabad.

In October 2023, Lokesh stated that principal photography was intended to begin in March 2024.[46] However, in March Lokesh stated that filming was delayed to June.[47] According to reports, the delay was due to a grand set being erected and not finished in time.[48] Rajinikanth later confirmed that it was scheduled to begin on 10 June in Chennai,[49] but failed to do so, reportedly due to pre-production delays.[50] Filming ultimately began with the first schedule on 5 July at Ramoji Film City in Hyderabad.[51][52] The schedule was touted to be going for a month.[53] Rajinikanth, along with Haasan and Mahendran, joined the concurrent schedule.[40] In mid‐July, production moved to Adhityaram Studios in Chennai.[citation needed] The second schedule commenced on 12 August at ERR Studio in Chennai.[citation needed] Soubin began filming his portions on 18 August.[54] Reportedly, a song sequence was shot during this schedule in mid-August.[citation needed]

On 20 August, the third schedule began at Visakhapatnam in Andhra Pradesh. The team shot mostly at Vizag Fishing Harbour during this schedule.[55] On 14 September, filming was halted due to a fire was erupted near the sets of the film from one of the containers at the harbour.[56] A Onam celebration was held at the film's sets on 15 September, with the makers sharing a footage of the team dancing to "Manasilaayo" from Rajinikanth's Vettaiyan (2024).[57] During this schedule, footage of Nagarjuna was leaked to social media platforms. This led to Lokesh requesting people to not share the footage and he stated that two months of people's hardwork were ruined due to the leak.[58]

Marketing

The first look poster was released on 28 March 2024, without any pre-announcement.[63] The film's teaser trailer was released on 22 April, which revealed the film's title.[15]

Release

Theatrical

Coolie is scheduled to release worldwide in 2025 in standard and IMAX formats.[28][30] Apart from the original Tamil language, the film is also scheduled to release with dubbed versions in the Hindi, Telugu and Kannada-languages.[64]

Home media

The digital streaming rights were reportedly acquired by Amazon Prime Video and the satellite rights by Sun TV.[65]

A week after the teaser's release, Ilaiyaraaja sent a notice to the makers for using "Vaa Vaa Pakkam Vaa" in the teaser without his permission. Pointed as an offence under the Copyright Act of 1976, the composer demanded the makers to get proper permission or remove the track from the teaser.[66][67] Rajinikanth, when questioned about the issue, stated that it was only between Ilaiyaraaja and the film's producer, Kalanithi Maran.[68] However, according to critic Sathish Kumar, Ilaiyaraaja does not hold the copyright to the song as Echo, the record label of the song, had their entire catalogue acquired by Sony Music South who later sold this song's rights to Sun Pictures.[69] During a hearing in the Madras High Court in late April, the judge said Ilaiyaraaja could not claim exclusive ownership over the song, as the lyrics were written by a different person.[70]
