As a die-hard fan of both Rajinikanth and Upendra, I can barely contain my excitement! The fact that the Superstar himself admires Upendra, recognizing his unique talent and innovative approach to cinema, is nothing short of exhilarating. It’s like a dream come true for me, akin to discovering a long-lost relative with whom you share an unspoken bond.

It appears that Superstar Rajinikanth expresses admiration for Upendra too, as evidenced by a viral video following the announcement of his role in Coolie with Lokesh Kanagaraj. In this clip, Rajinikanth is seen expressing his thoughts to the media after watching Upendra’s 2010 film Super.

In the video, Rajinikanth expresses great admiration for Upendra, referring to him as an exceptional actor and filmmaker. To put it simply, Rajinikanth said something like, “There’s nobody in India who thinks or creates like Upendra does. He brings a unique flair to films that no one else can replicate. It’s only him.”

Regarding Upendra, Rajinikanth expressed his admiration for him as a director in an old video, saying, “I truly appreciate Upendra as a director. I hope he continues to direct films and also works on other projects simultaneously.” In reference to Super, Rajinikanth commented, “I found the film delightful. May blessings be upon you.”

Regarding a potential film collaboration between Rajinikanth and Upendra, the actor expressed, “We’ll have to wait and see. If Upendra comes up with an interesting script and wishes to discuss it with me, there’s a strong possibility that we could work together.”

Kannada artist and movie maker Upendra is admired by film enthusiasts for his distinctive body of work. Beyond his exceptional acting skills, Upendra is recognized for his eccentric, intellectually stimulating directorial ventures like Uppi, Uppi 2, Super, and others.

Over the past day, whispers have been circulating about Upendra potentially featuring in the movie Coolie, though nothing official has been announced yet. Additionally, it’s been speculated that he may have danced alongside the Superstar in a thrilling dance sequence.

Towards the end of the day, Upendra officially confirmed his involvement in Coolie through a tweet, expressing his appreciation. He thanked Director Lokesh Kanagaraj for allowing him to act alongside Rajinikanth on screen.

Shortly after, Upendra removed his tweet, sparking some curiosity among movie enthusiasts. Nonetheless, it’s now confirmed beyond doubt that Upendra will take on a significant part in the upcoming film titled “Coolie”.
