Rajinikanth to play Deva in Lokesh Kanagaraj’s Coolie
All the main characters from Lokesh Kanagaraj’s upcoming film Coolie have officially been introduced.
After sharing 5 character posters, the director released a new poster on his X (formerly Twitter), introducing Rajinikanth’s character as Deva from the film.
In it, Rajinikanth can be seen holding a number tag that coolies wear with 1421 written on it. It’s the only pop of colour in an otherwise monochrome poster. The actor is dressed in a dark shirt in the poster with a dog tag around his neck.
“Superstar @rajinikanth sir as #Deva in #Coolie. Thank you so much for this @rajinikanth sir. It’s going to be a blast,” wrote Lokesh on X, sharing a new poster of Rajinikanth from the film.
While Rajinikanth’s Deva leads Lokesh’s film, the director also introduced the other characters that make up this world. Malayalam actor Soubin Shahir plays Daya in the film, a watch being his accessory. Telugu actor Nagarjuna plays Simon, who’s also accessorised with a watch and a red scarf.
Shruti Haasan’s Preethi looks intense in her poster with a shovel in her hand while Sathyaraj’s Rajasekhar has a red wire entangled around his hand.
Kannada actor Nimma Upendra plays Kaleesha, and a fish hook forms his accessory. All the posters are in monochrome with only the accessories given a touch of gold.
