All Eyes on Anirudh: Can He Keep Coolie Hype Alive?

Rajinikanth’s most anticipated film, Coolie, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, is currently in the post-production stage and is scheduled for a worldwide theatrical release on August 14th.

Now, Sun Pictures has officially announced that the first single from Coolie, titled Chikitu, composed by Anirudh Ravichander and sung by T. Rajendar, will be dropped on June 25th, at 6 PM.

Coolie is gearing up for a theatrical clash with NTR and Hrithik Roshan’s War 2 on August 14th. As of now, Coolie has an upper hand in the hype meter, so the success of the first single is important to maintain the momentum.

Moreover, Anirudh Ravichander’s compositions in recent big-budget films such as Indian 2, Vettaiyan, and Vidaamuyarchi have disappointed audiences.

Many netizens have responded that Anirudh is slowly becoming outdated, and also his background score in the recently released Jana Nayagan faced severe backlash from audiences.

Therefore, the success of Coolie’s first single is crucial for Anirudh Ravichander to showcase his potential and reclaim his throne.

Also, the expectation for Coolie’s first single is huge, as Anirudh Ravichander and Lokesh Kanagaraj have so far delivered two blockbuster albums with Vikram and Leo.

Hence, it remains to be seen whether the first single of Coolie satisfies the expectations of the audiences and marks the comeback of Anirudh Ravichander upon its release on June 25th.
