Mumbai, Aug 14: Rajinikanth’s much-awaited action entertainer Coolie, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, released in theatres on Friday to high expectations. Early reactions on social media have been divided, with many praising the film’s fast-paced first half and stylish action, while others expressed disappointment over its length and predictable climax.
