The makers of Coolie, starring Rajinikanth,released a ‘Chikitu Music Video’, featuring music composer Anirudh Ravichander and veteran actor-director T Rajendar. A glimpse of the catchy number was unveiled on Rajinikanth’s birthday (December 12) last year. Directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, Coolie is set to release on August 14, 2025.

The promotional video shows T Rajendar and Anirudh grooving to the song and recreating the moves of Rajinikanth from the movie. With the dance steps choreographed by Sandy, the video is also an ode to the much-celebrated style of the superstar. ‘Chikitu’ is sung by Anirudh, T Rajendar and Arivu, who has also written the track.
