Rajinikanth's Coolie gets a new Hindi title—Coolie: The Powerhouse. Makers unveil fresh poster and first song Chikitu ahead of August 14 release.
Rajinikanth's much-awaited film Coolie, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, is all set to light up the big screen on August 14, 2025. While earlier reports suggested that the Hindi version of the film would be titled Majdoor, the makers have now revealed the official Hindi title — Coolie: The Powerhouse.
Announcing the news on social media, Sun Pictures shared the Hindi poster featuring Rajinikanth in all his fiery glory. 'Deva's rage begins in 50 days! #CoolieIn50Days. #Coolie in Hindi is now #CoolieThePowerhouse," the caption read, amping up the anticipation.
Coolie marks yet another high-octane collaboration between Rajinikanth and some of South India's finest talents, with a powerhouse ensemble that includes Nagarjuna, Upendra, Soubin Shahir, Sathyaraj, Shruti Haasan, Reba Monica John, Junior MGR, and Monisha Blessy.
The hype reached fever pitch when the makers dropped the film's first single, Chikitu, on YouTube on June 25. In the vibrant track, the 74-year-old superstar is seen dancing with infectious energy and unmatched charisma. Lending his voice to the number is T Rajhendherr, whose dynamic performance has drawn admiration across generations.
Fans wasted no time in expressing their joy and admiration for the veteran duo. One user exclaimed, 'This generation should learn a lot from T Rajendran sir and Rajini Sir… At 70s, their energy, dedication and consistent hard work are really speechless."
Another marveled, 'A man standing up and walking at the age of 74 is a feat."
Combining the film's creative trifecta — Rajinikanth's screen dominance, Lokesh Kanagaraj's direction, and Anirudh's electrifying background score — one excited fan wrote, 'Rajini sir screen presence + Lokesh taking + Anirudh BGM = Mass rampage in theatres."
'70s kids, 80s kids, 90s kids, 2000s kids, 2010s kids, 2020s kids – all kids are surrendering for the one and only Thalaivar – Evergreen Superstar of Indian Cinema," a fan gushed with generational pride.
Others expressed their emotional connection, with one writing, 'It was only the first time I heard it, and I already got addicted to the song," while another shared, 'In my family I, my wife, my son, my daughter are ardent fans of the leader (Rajinikanth)."
A particularly moving tribute read, 'A 72-year-old man storming the screen with that unmatched energy. It is pure bliss to watch! Superstar is not just an actor; he is Indian cinema. Can't wait for August 14th."
Recalling an early Rajini memory, one fan shared, 'I am proud to be a Rajini fan since the first Rajini film I saw was Mullum Malarum."
And finally, a nostalgic voice echoed many sentiments: 'Finally TR and Rajni joined. I remember always when Rajni's film releases, TR only releases his movie against him & succeeds."
Produced by Kalanithi Maran's Sun Pictures, Coolie: The Powerhouse promises to be a mass entertainer blending charisma, nostalgia, and raw cinematic energy. With just weeks to go, the countdown to Thalaivar's next big screen eruption has well and truly begun.
