More details about Coolie
Coolie, starring Rajinikanth in the lead role, features Aamir Khan as Dahaa, a syndicate leader who controls an organ trade. The Bollywood superstar’s cameo comes in at the final act of the movie, ending with a threatening remark against the protagonist.
The film explored the story of Deva, a former daily wage labourer who is left shocked by the sudden demise of his friend Rajasekhar. Upon visiting the latter’s home for the final rites, Deva learns his friend didn’t die of natural causes and that he was linked with a dangerous crime syndicate.

The film, a remake of the Spanish movie Champions (2018), was a massive success in theaters. The actor is next expected to appear in a biopic film about Dadasaheb Phalke, directed by Rajkumar Hirani.
