Rajinikanth in Coolie
The craze for Rajinikanth's upcoming film Coolie is real. With the film just six days away from release, the makers have opened the bookings. Even in an age of online ticketing, fans were seen rushing to grab their offline tickets for FDFS (first day first show). Sun Pictures, the producers of Coolie, took to their social media handle to give a glimpse of the on-ground madness for the film.
The makers of Coolie dropped a small clip of fans waiting in large numbers outside a theatre in Kerala's Thrissur. The video shows the guards opening the gate and the fans running to form a line outside the ticket counter. The fans rushed to get a good seat booked for the FDFS.
The hype for Coolie in the state of Kerala is massive. The film has reportedly crossed Rs 3 crore in advance sales with six days remaining. So far, the record for the highest-earning film in Kerala is being held by Thalapathy Vijay's Leo. Going by the trends, Coolie is likely to beat the record held by Leo in Kerala.
