Rajinikanth ‘Chikitufied’ in Coolie’s Viral Song

The excitement is real—Rajinikanth is back in style! Sun Pictures recently shared behind-the-scenes stills from Chikitu, the viral track from the upcoming Tamil action film Coolie, and fans can’t get enough. The caption, This is when Deva got chikitufied!, perfectly sums up the buzz. Within just five days, the song has gained nearly 9 million views on YouTube.

Rajinikanth’s character, Deva, is a fresh take on his classic coolie roles from Mullum Malarum and Uzhaippali. Dressed in his signature denim, he effortlessly mixes vintage charm with today’s swagger. Directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, Coolie celebrates Rajini’s 50-year journey in cinema, and Chikitu is already being called a fan-favorite anthem.

The music, composed by Anirudh Ravichander with lyrics by Arivu, blends traditional Tamil instruments like the shehnai with strong beats and catchy hooks. The result is a bold track that’s both nostalgic and modern. The chorus, Get Chikitufied!, is trending across platforms, sparking memes, reels, and a denim fashion craze.

Slated for release on August 14, 2025, Coolie also stars Nagarjuna, Shruti Haasan, Sathyaraj, and Soubin Shahir. With Chikitu already creating a storm, the film promises high-octane action, powerful style, and pure Rajinikanth magic. One thing’s clear—Thalaiva is not just back, he’s totally chikitufied
