Amidst massive anticipation, the USA premieres of Coolie are kicking off today, marking a historic milestone for Tamil cinema on the global stage. Starring Superstar Rajinikanth and directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, the film has already set trade circles buzzing and is poised for a record-shattering start.
Released in North America by Prathyangira Cinemas, Coolie is rewriting the record books even before its first show begins. With premiere pre-sales crossing a staggering $2.6 million, the film has generated unprecedented excitement among overseas audiences. This makes Coolie the highest-grossing Tamil film premiere ever in the U.S., surpassing previous giants like Kabali and Leo.
In an extraordinary feat, Coolie has also eclipsed Rajinikanth’s own Kabali premiere day record in the U.S., purely on the strength of advance ticket sales.
A Milestone in Rajinikanth’s Legacy
Touted as the biggest opening of Rajinikanth’s illustrious career, Coolie is riding on a tidal wave of fan fervor and media attention. The massive ensemble cast—including Nagarjuna, Aamir Khan, Upendra, Shruti Haasan, and Sathyaraj—adds even more power to its cinematic spectacle. With Anirudh’s pulsating music, the film is set to electrify audiences.
With unstoppable momentum and massive pre-release numbers, Coolie is not just promising high-octane action—it is delivering a historic global conquest that will be remembered for years to come.
