The cinematic landscape is buzzing with excitement as two of the biggest films of the year, Lokesh Kanagaraj's action thriller Coolie and Ayan Mukerji's War 2, gear up for a massive box office clash. Both films are set to hit the screens on August 14, and the competition is fierce. In the midst of this high-stakes showdown, a new detail about Coolie has emerged that has fans even more excited: superstar Nagarjuna is set to play the role of the villain.

Nagarjuna, known for his charismatic and often heroic roles, recently attended a special event organized by Spotify in Mumbai for the Hindi album launch of Coolie. Speaking at the event, he gave a fascinating insight into his character. When asked about his experience playing a baddie, Nagarjuna shared how the legendary Rajinikanth supported him during the shoot. He confessed with a humorous tone, "I definitely don’t want to tell my grandchildren about this role. It’s bad, too bad." This candid revelation hints at a character that is truly menacing and a performance that will leave a lasting impression.

A Villainous Turn and a Superstar's Support

For Nagarjuna, playing a villain of this magnitude is a significant departure from his usual roles. He expressed his gratitude for the opportunity and spoke about his experience of working with the superstar, Rajinikanth. Their camaraderie on set and Rajinikanth's encouragement were instrumental in helping Nagarjuna embrace the dark side of his character. This on-screen dynamic between the two legends promises to be a major highlight of the film, adding another layer of depth and intensity to the narrative.

The film, directed by the visionary Lokesh Kanagaraj, is part of a cinematic universe that he is building. Coolie is expected to be a high-octane action thriller, and with the addition of Nagarjuna as the antagonist, the stakes have been raised even higher. The clash between two such powerful actors, both with a massive fan base, is sure to be a treat for movie lovers.

The Battle of August 14: Coolie vs. War 2

The release date of August 14 is shaping up to be a historic day at the box office. On one side is Coolie, a film that brings together a powerful trio of Rajinikanth, Lokesh Kanagaraj, and Nagarjuna. On the other side is War 2, a part of YRF’s spy universe, starring two of the biggest action stars in the country, Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR.

Both films have generated immense hype and anticipation. Coolie is expected to be a gritty, intense action film, while War 2 promises to be a sleek, stylish spy thriller with breathtaking action sequences. The box office battle between these two cinematic giants will be one for the ages, and it will be interesting to see which film manages to capture the audience's imagination.

Nagarjuna's villainous role is a bold and exciting move, and his performance is sure to be a major talking point. As the release date draws closer, fans of both films are counting down the days, eager to witness the epic showdown on the silver screen.
