Tamil director Lokesh Kanagaraj has gained a strong reputation for his fast-paced filmmaking. While many South Indian directors take two to three years to complete their films, Lokesh has consistently delivered big projects in remarkably short periods.
His latest film Coolie, starring Rajinikanth, was completed in just 6 months despite featuring stars like Nagarjuna, Upendra, Aamir Khan, and Shruti Haasan. This is impressive compared to the lengthy timelines common in the industry.

Lokesh’s fast work is no fluke. Right from his debut film Maanagaram, Kaithi, Master, Vikram, and Leo, all his films have been finished within 80-120 days.
He is achieving this by meticulous pre-production and planning, which keeps his shoots organized and efficient. Despite occasional screenplay flaws in Master and Leo, Lokesh’s films have maintained solid quality.
