Majdoor Is Now Coolie The Powerhouse: Rajinikanth Fans Approve New Hindi Coolie Title As Makers Rechristen It After Heavy Trolling

Rajinikanth starrer Coolie is all set to hit the big screens on August 14. The first song from the movie, Chikitu, has been released and Anirudh Ravichander's background music is sure to elevate Rajinikanth's persona and screen presence. In an new update, the makers revealed the new Hindi title of Coolie after the previous one attracted immense trolling.

Coolie was previously titled Majdoor in Hindi. This invited immense backlash. Many even suggested other titles to Sun Pictures on social media. Given the pan-India buzz of the film, the title change to Coolie The Powerhouse is expected to be a good commercial move too.
