Aamir Khan’s Dilemma: Rajinikanth’s Smile, Eyes, or Energy?

Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan, known for his significant contributions to the industry and global reach, is set to star in a pivotal role in the upcoming film ‘Coolie’ alongside South cinema’s megastar, Rajinikanth. During a promotional event for ‘Coolie,’ Aamir Khan addressed the audience, expressing his admiration for Rajinikanth. Khan stated that he is a huge fan of Rajinikanth and felt honored to be part of the film. He praised the cast and director Lokesh Kanagaraj, and shared how much he enjoyed working with them. When asked what quality of Rajinikanth he would choose to possess, Khan was initially taken aback. He mentioned the megastar’s captivating smile, which has charmed fans worldwide, and then contemplated his expressive eyes. Ultimately, Khan chose Rajinikanth’s internal energy, highlighting his ability to connect with people both on and off-screen. He humorously added that even 5% of Rajinikanth’s energy would suffice for him. Khan revealed that he accepted the role in ‘Coolie’ without reading the script, a first for him. Additionally, he began waking up at 4 AM to avoid being late on set and making Rajinikanth wait, showing his dedication. ‘Coolie’ is scheduled to release in theaters on August 14, 2025, and has already generated positive responses during advance bookings.
