Coolie: Is Rajinikanth starrer violating IMAX rules after Aamir Khan's character poster unveiled? Find out
Did the makers of Coolie violate IMAX rules?
In a recent announcement, the makers of Coolie announced Aamir Khan with a character poster, revealing him to play Dahaa. However, in the same update, it was reported that the Rajinikanth starrer will be releasing in IMAX format as well.
Although Sun Pictures have made the announcement, the IMAX corporation is yet to announce whether Coolie will be arriving on their screens. What makes it more interesting is the fact that War 2 is expected to be hitting IMAX screens all over and is clashing with the Rajinikanth starrer.
According to a report by Bollywood Hungama, War 2 makers have closed an exclusive deal with IMAX. In the agreement they had, no other films are said to hit the IMAX screens in India.
While this deal is speculated to be in effect, it came as a surprise that Coolie makers mentioned the film to arrive on IMAX, including the official logo.
Moreover, it is said that any film in association with a corporation is said to have a tag of 'Experience it in IMAX' or 'Filmed for IMAX.' However, the makers mentioned it as 'Watch it in IMAX,' likely going against the company's mandate.
With such remarks being made, we'll have to wait and see what the makers of Coolie have to say about it.

On Day 16, the Hindi (2D) version saw a rise in cinema occupancy: The increase in evening show attendance suggests that the film continues to attract families and younger audiences.
