In foreign markets, the movie's box office momentum is already apparent

Even before its theatrical release, the upcoming movie Coolie, which is helmed by Lokesh Kanagaraj and stars Rajinikanth, is generating a lot of buzz.

The movie is currently dominating music charts and creating a lot of buzz online thanks to the success of its promotional materials, which include the third single, "Powerhouse," which went viral.

With its distinctive setting of high-end timepieces, Coolie represents a change in genre for Lokesh and has aroused the interest of viewers everywhere.

In foreign markets, the movie's box office momentum is already apparent. With three weeks left before its release, Coolie has achieved a rare milestone in bookings in the US: half a million dollars.

To meet the tremendous demand, distributors are preparing to add more screenings, as most of the planned shows are already sold out.

With more than $60,000 in pre-sales, the Telugu version is also off to a strong start. The dubbed version's impressive performance highlights Rajinikanth's broad appeal and the growing interest among Telugu-speaking fans. The producers' decision to have late-night premieres, however, might have a minor impact on the film's opening-day box office prospects.

The excitement surrounding Coolie is only going to grow as more promotional materials are anticipated in the days ahead. The film, which is supported by Sun Pictures, stars Aamir Khan, Nagarjuna, Upendra, Shruti Haasan, Soubin Shahir, and Sathyaraj. Anirudh Ravichander composed the upbeat soundtrack. Now, everyone is waiting for its worldwide release, which is sure to be a spectacular event.
