Superstar Rajinikanth and Aamir Khan came together first time for a film in 1995 titled Aatank Hi Aatank. The film was a freemake of the Hollywood classic The Godfather. The film turned out to be a disaster. It is also considered one of the worst films and performances of Aamir Khan.
Now both superstars are coming together in Lokesh Kanagaraj’s Coolie. Coolie already features Nagarjuna Akkineni, Shruti Haasan, and Sivakarthikeyan.
