Coolie is without doubt one of the most anticipated big-banner releases forward. Starring Rajinikanth within the lead, it’s one in all Lokesh Kanagaraj’s most formidable directorial ventures. In a current interview, the filmmaker clarified whether or not this challenge was part of his cinematic ventures and whether or not Kamal Haasan might pull off this movie.
Is Coolie a part of the LCU universe?
Talking with Bharadwaj Rangan not too long ago, Lokesh Kanagaraj clarified that, not like Kamal Haasan’s Vikram, Coolie was a standalone movie and had no connection in any way along with his cinematic universe.
He defined, “That is one other standalone movie which has nothing to do with my universe.”
Did Lokesh Kanagaraj need Kamal Haasan to be part of Coolie?
Shifting on within the interview, Lokesh Kanagaraj clarified that, nowhere throughout the making of Coolie, did he need Kamal Haasan to be a part of the challenge.
The filmmaker expressed that if he have been to want that Rajinikanth and Kamal Haasan come collectively for a collaboration, he could be able to beg on his knees for them.
Nonetheless, on this case, Lokesh identified that Coolie can’t be carried out by Kamal Haasan, whereas Vikram can’t be carried out by Rajinikanth.
In his phrases, “What’s clear to me is why Rajni sir shouldn’t do Vikram and Kamal sir should not do Coolie. As a result of it was written for each of them. It wasn’t like they have been the one ones who didn’t need anybody else doing something other than these two. In order that wouldn’t be honest.”
When Lokesh revealed Rajinikanth was able to do Coolie after solely listening to half script
In a earlier interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Lokesh Kanagaraj recalled how Rajinikanth was able to tackle Coolie after solely listening to half of the script from the director.
He talked about, “I didn’t count on him to say sure. I narrated solely the primary half and paused on the interval block to ask if he’d have an interest. He instantly mentioned sure. I hadn’t even written the second half but. Once I returned a few months later with the entire script, he cherished it.”
