Rajinikanth and Lokesh Kanagaraj’s Coolie is just almost a week away from its theatrical release. The film’s overseas bookings are excellent. Meanwhile, Coolie gets different censor ratings in India and overseas.

The action drama has been censored with an ‘A’ rating in India, and the fans are happy with that, as Lokesh Kanagaraj did not compromise on the action parts. But there are some concerns from the trade about the adult rating.

Everyone knows that Superstar Rajinikanth has a huge fan base among kids/families, and the kids are not allowed to watch the film. The trade thinks that it will have a significant impact on the box office numbers.

Rajinikanth’s Coolie: Different Censor Ratings in India and Overseas

The surprising thing is that the overseas print of Cooli cleared the censor with a U/A kind of rating in Indian terms. The overseas censor team also says that the film contains strong violence, but they did not give an ‘A’ rating.

Fans are surprised as Rajinikanth and Lokesh Kanagaraj’s Coolie gets different censor ratings in India and overseas.

A few fans of Rajini and netizens ask the makers to edit another version of the film with a U/A rating for the Indian censor and release both versions in theaters, but it is practically impossible.

Kiara Advani’s Bikini Shot Hurting War 2

There are just seven days left for the release of NTR and Hrithik Roshan’s War 2. While the fans await more promotions from the film, the makers are continuously using Kiara Advani’s bikini shot, which is hurting War 2. 

Till now four video contents have been released from the much-awaited sequel of War, and the shocking part is that all of them have one thing inthe glamor show of Kiara.

Lately, YRF released the making-of video of the film’s first song, Aava Jaavan, and even in this making-of video, the scenes of Kiara’s bikini have been added. The audiences are also shocked with the way makers are stressing this instead of focusing more on action or other elements.

Kiara Advani’s bikini shot is hurting War 2. Yes, such an extreme glamour show by a top heroine will trend on the internet, which is a plus for the movie, but over usage of that scene/part is becoming a big minus for the film.

The team YRF should concentrate on other elements like action and the face-off of NTR and Hrithik, but these are not getting the required importance, as the glamor takes the main spot.

Due to these low-key promotions, the overseas advances for the film are not up to the expected levels. The makers need to release the action and dance glimpses this week to raise the expectations to the next level.
