Veteran Hero Nagarjuna returned to the big screens with his latest film Coolie. Surprisingly, he played the antagonist in this Lokesh Kanagaraj film, which features Rajinikanth in the main lead role.

Coolie has finally arrived in cinemas, and early responses are already singling out Nagarjuna Akkineni as one of the film’s biggest highlights. His dynamic appearance in the high-energy track I Am The Danger has created an instant buzz, with viewers praising his unmatched style and presence.

What makes this performance even more special is that Coolie marks the first time in his career that Nagarjuna has taken on a full-fledged negative role. He plays Simon, a cold, calculated, and authoritative antagonist who commands every scene he appears in. Fans and critics alike are calling him the “real show stealer” of the movie, crediting his performance with injecting a fresh edge into the story.

The I Am The Danger sequence, elevated by Anirudh’s pulsating background score, enhances Nag’s larger-than-life image and swag, turning it into one of the film’s most memorable moments. Many are calling this casting move one of the boldest and smartest decisions in recent Telugu cinema.

Social media is overflowing with reactions praising Nagarjuna’s daring transformation and the confidence with which he embraced a darker character. It’s clear that this new avatar has struck a chord with audiences, giving fans a version of the star they will remember long after the credits roll.
