Superstar Rajinikanth’s action-packed entertainer Coolie, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, hit theatres on August 14, 2025, and has been drawing massive crowds since its release. As the film continues to
dominate the big screens, fans are eagerly awaiting its arrival on OTT.
Where to Watch Coolie Online?
The makers have confirmed that Coolie will stream exclusively on Amazon Prime Video following its theatrical run. The announcement was subtly made during the film’s opening credits, which revealed the platform as the official digital partner.
While an official streaming date has not yet been disclosed, industry reports suggest that Coolie will make its OTT debut around eight weeks after its theatrical release — a common window for major South Indian blockbusters.
Storyline & Official Trailer
Coolie is a high-octane action drama that follows Deva (Rajinikanth), a former daily-wage laborer who now runs a hostel-style mansion in Chennai. His life takes a dark turn when his close friend Rajasekhar dies under suspicious circumstances.
As Deva digs deeper, he uncovers a dangerous link to a criminal syndicate led by the ruthless kingpin Simon Xavier. With the odds stacked against him, Deva sets out on a mission of revenge, unearthing a shocking past connection between himself and Simon.
Star-Studded Cast & Crew
The film boasts a power-packed ensemble cast. Apart from Rajinikanth in the lead, Coolie features Nagarjuna Akkineni, Upendra Rao, and Aamir Khan (in a special appearance) in pivotal roles. The supporting lineup includes Soubin Shahir, Shruti Haasan, Sathyaraj, Rachita Ram, Reba Monica John, Kanna Ravi, Monisha Blessy, Kaali Venkat, Rishikanth, Tamizh, Mahesh Manjrekar, and Baburaj.
Veteran actress Shobana appears in a cameo as Deva’s wife, while Pooja Hegde delivers a glamorous appearance in the song Monica.
Behind the scenes, Lokesh Kanagaraj not only directed the film but also co-wrote it with Chandhru Anbazhagan. Music is composed by Anirudh Ravichander, cinematography is handled by Girish Gangadharan, and editing is by Philomin Raj.
Rajinikanth’s Upcoming Projects
Even as Coolie enjoys a successful run, Rajinikanth is gearing up for his next — Jailer 2, the sequel to the 2023 blockbuster Jailer, directed by Nelson Dilipkumar. The superstar will reprise his role as ‘Tiger’ Muthuvel Pandian, with Mohanlal and Shiva Rajkumar expected to return. Reports also suggest that Nandamuri Balakrishna will have a special cameo in the sequel.
With Coolie still ruling theatres and a highly anticipated OTT release on the horizon, Rajinikanth continues to prove why he remains the undisputed king of Indian cinema.
