Coolie Plot Leaked: Rajinikanth Plays Gold-Smuggling Mafia Boss In Lokesh Kanagaraj’s Next
Online listings on Letterboxd and Fandango hint at the plot of Coolie, revealing Rajinikanth as an aging gold smuggler leading a mafia comeback using tech hidden in vintage golden watches.

Lokesh Kanagaraj’s 'Coolie', headlined by superstar Rajinikanth, has kept audiences guessing with its tight-lipped promotional campaign, but new plot descriptions surfacing online may have just given fans their first real peek into the storyline.
While the makers have carefully avoided giving away any major plot points and Lokesh himself has remained silent during interviews, international platforms like Letterboxd and Fandango have now listed intriguing synopses that hint at what to expect from the much-hyped action drama.
Coolie plot revealed
According to Letterboxd, Rajinikanth plays Deva, an aging gold smuggler who sets out to rebuild his old criminal empire using stolen technology hidden in vintage golden watches. The synopsis reads:
"An aging gold smuggler uses stolen tech hidden in vintage golden watches to revive his old mafia crew. But his plan to reclaim his empire spirals into something bigger, a new universe forged from crime, greed, and broken time."
The emphasis on watches and gold echoes what fans have already glimpsed in the film’s minimal yet visually loaded promotional material.
Fandango offers further insight, framing Deva’s journey as one deeply rooted in vengeance. The platform’s description states,
"Delves into a man's relentless quest for vengeance since youth, driven by righting past wrongs, shaping his very existence. Viewers experience the complexities of his tumultuous vendetta journey."
The combination of personal revenge and high-stakes gangster drama suggests that Coolie will offer both emotional depth and explosive action.
What we know about Coolie
Coolie is Lokesh Kanagaraj’s first collaboration with Rajinikanth and follows the director’s last hit, Leo starring Vijay. While many of Lokesh’s films so far, like Kaithi, Vikram, and Leo, have been part of his shared Lokesh Cinematic Universe (LCU), Coolie will stand alone, separate from the LCU timeline.
Despite being a solo outing, 'Coolie' boasts a massive ensemble cast including Aamir Khan, Nagarjuna, Shruti Haasan, Sathyaraj, Upendra, and Soubin Shahir. Music for the film is composed by Anirudh Ravichander, adding to the excitement around the project.
Rajinikanth, who was last seen in 'Vettaiyan' alongside Amitabh Bachchan, will also return soon in Jailer 2. But for now, all eyes are on Coolie, which is shaping up to be one of the biggest theatrical events of the year.
Though nothing has been officially confirmed by the filmmakers, the plot descriptions circulating online have only intensified fan speculation.
