One of the main reasons for the massive craze among audiences for Coolie is Nagarjuna doing the antagonist role. The expectations were high for his character, and everyone was disappointed after seeing the film. However, surprisingly, Simon is trending on the internet.
Telugu audiences expected it to be a tug-of-war between Simon and Deva in the film. While Lokesh Kangaraj presented the character with a lot of swag and stylish presence, he gave the characterization a regular one, which disappointed the fans.
Nagarjuna is one of the biggest superstars in Tollywood, and no one wants to see him in regular villain roles. But Simon’s character works well in Tamil and Hindi.
Nagarjuna’s Simon videos are trending viral on the internet, and especially the swag and screen presence are winning huge appreciations. Especially Tamil audiences are doing multiple edits with the Soniya Soniya song with Nag’s shots from Coolie.
This will be a relief for Nagarjuna as well, but he definitely needs to take the feedback seriously and has to do big roles to satisfy Telugu audiences as well.
