The much-awaited Tamil film Coolie, starring superstar Rajinikanth, is gearing up for a grand worldwide release on August 14, 2025, with unprecedented levels of excitement and anticipation. The film has already rewritten pre-release records, clocking over ₹100 crore in advance bookings for its opening weekend across markets.
In the United States, Coolie has set a new benchmark for Tamil cinema, amassing nearly $3 million in premiere pre-sales — the highest ever for a Tamil-language film in the territory. Industry trackers expect the movie to shatter previous opening day records in Tamil cinema if the current momentum continues.
Fan celebrations for the Coolie First Day First Show (#CoolieFDFS) are planned in multiple countries, with tickets selling out in minutes in many locations. The frenzy reflects Rajinikanth’s unmatched global appeal, which continues to draw audiences across linguistic and regional boundaries.
Social media is abuzz with fan-generated content, trending hashtags, and celebratory campaigns in the run-up to release day. Trade analysts predict that if Coolie receives strong reviews, it could become one of the highest-grossing films in Kollywood history.
With its staggering advance sales, international attention, and the charisma of Rajinikanth at its core, Coolie is positioned as a potential game-changer for Tamil cinema on the global stage.
