Rajinikanth’s highly awaited film Coolie, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, is set to face off with War 2, starring Hrithik Roshan and NTR and directed by Ayan Mukerji, in a major box office battle on August 14th. With the theatrical clash just two weeks away, both teams are heavily promoting their films, aiming to dominate the pre-release buzz and draw in larger audiences.
As part of this aggressive promotional run, the War 2 team dropped their first single Aavan Jaavan today as a birthday surprise for actress Kiara Advani. Meanwhile, even though Coolie’s audio launch was already scheduled for August 2nd, Sun Pictures shared a new teaser video today featuring director Lokesh Kanagaraj and composer Anirudh Ravichander, stirring fresh excitement online.

This parallel timing has sparked controversy among fans. Several Hrithik Roshan supporters took to social media accusing the Coolie team of deliberately trying to steal War 2’s spotlight. They claim that every time a new update for War 2 is shared, the Coolie team follows with a poster or clip to deflect attention and ride the wave of trending content.
As a result, some fans believe that the Coolie team feels threatened by the growing anticipation for War 2, and they argue that Coolie updates should be timed more independently to avoid negative comparisons. This digital tug-of-war is intensifying the rivalry between the fandoms, building even more hype ahead of the release.
