“Chikitu” from Coolie to Launch June 25: Anirudh and Rajinikanth Reunite for Another Musical Storm

 As anticipation reaches fever pitch for Coolie, one of Tamil cinema’s most awaited releases of 2025, the film's team has revealed that the first single, titled “Chikitu,” will be unveiled on June 25. Featuring and performed by Anirudh Ravichander, the song promises to set the stage for a fiery cinematic ride.

This isn't the first time Anirudh has teamed up with superstar Rajinikanth or director Lokesh Kanagaraj. With past musical triumphs like Jailer, Petta, and Darbar, and high-energy scores in Master and Vikram, Anirudh's presence is a guarantee of mass appeal. His dual role in “Chikitu” as composer and performer only adds to the anticipation.

The song is expected to showcase the trademark Lokesh Kanagaraj style—stylish, gritty visuals with fast-paced rhythms. The music video is likely to reflect the mood and theme of Coolie, offering fans a teaser of what’s in store this August.

Coolie, backed by Sun Pictures, is being produced on a mammoth scale, with a reported budget of ₹350 crore. The film will hit theatres on August 14, 2025, in IMAX format, aiming for a box office splash over the Independence Day weekend.

This combination of Rajinikanth, Lokesh, and Anirudh forms a powerful trio. With “Chikitu” on its way, the hype around Coolie is about to explode. Will this song redefine the sound of Tamil action films in 2025? The world will know on June 25.
