As a seasoned film enthusiast with over two decades of immersing myself in the rich tapestry of cinema, I must say that Lokesh Kanagaraj‘s ambitious plans for his cinematic universe are nothing short of exhilarating. His knack for blending action, drama, and suspense in a way that resonates with audiences is truly commendable.

In the present, acting superstar Rajinikanth is engaged in the filming process for his upcoming movie titled “Coolie.” Interestingly, the director of this project, Lokesh Kanagaraj, recently granted an interview with The Hollywood Reporter where he disclosed that the release date for this movie could be as early as Summer 2025.

During the same interview, the director shared insights into his vision for the Lokesh Cinematic Universe. He mentioned that after that, he intends to direct Kaithi 2, with filming expected to commence in August 2025.

Discussing his cinematic world, the director shared that he intends to direct three additional films before wrapping up this universe. Lokesh mentioned a standalone film featuring Suriya’s character Rolex, and ending with Vikram 3. He also hinted that if not for Thalapathy Vijay’s retirement, another installment of Leo (Leo 2) would have been made as well.

During a post-movie discussion with the press, a reporter inquired about a potential sequel for the film titled ‘Leo’. If actor Vijay were to reprise his role, the director expressed his readiness to direct another installment.

In the future, Lokesh Kanagaraj shared some details about potentially teaming up with Aamir Khan for a film. The director hinted at possible collaboration but expressed uncertainty due to his own schedule. Furthermore, Loki mentioned that if everything falls into place, he would be thrilled to work with Aamir and admitted to being a fan of him. Regarding Aamir’s potential appearance in Coolie, the director neither confirmed nor denied this possibility.

At present, Lokesh is busy working on the film “Coolie,” which stars Rajinikanth. This will mark the initial partnership between the director and the actor, and it’s anticipated to deliver an exhilarating blend of action and suspense.

Besides Rajinikanth, this film boasts notable performances from stars such as Nagarjuna Akkineni and Upendra Rao in pivotal positions. Additionally, a talented ensemble of actors, including Shruti Haasan, Sathyaraj, and Soubin Shahir, are set to deliver significant supporting acts within the film.
