Rajinikanth’s upcoming film Coolie directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, and War 2 starring Hrithik Roshan and NTR under the direction of Ayan Mukerji, are both set for a theatrical release on August 14th. This big box office clash is already sparking heated fan debates online. Over the past few weeks, social media has been filled with back-and-forth trolling, with Rajinikanth fans taking aim at War 2 while Hrithik Roshan and NTR fans hit back by mocking Coolie.
Now, screenshots of Coolie’s IMDb page showing an 8.9 rating are being widely circulated by Hrithik Roshan fans. They claim that Sun Pictures has started planting fake reviews even though the film hasn’t been released yet. This has stirred further drama between fan bases, with some users accusing the makers of manipulating ratings before release.
At the same time, others have pointed out that these screenshots may be completely fake and edited. According to them, no such reviews or ratings exist for Coolie on IMDb’s official site. The situation has led to confusion and divided opinion online, with some continuing to criticise Sun Pictures based on these unverified claims.
With both movies carrying massive expectations and massive star power, the online fight only seems to be intensifying. As the release date approaches, the focus may shift from social media chatter to box office numbers. It remains to be seen which of the two films will emerge as the true blockbuster on August 14th.
