The actor-politician also gave the loudest shoutout to Rajinikanth's 'Coolie,' wishing "resounding global success" for the film.

He was last seen in 'Vettaiyan', which was directed by T.J. Gnanavel. The film also featured actors like Amitabh Bachchan, Fahadh Faasil, and Raa Daggubati.

Rajinikanth's next release, Lokesh Kanagaraj's 'Coolie' will hit theatres on August 14. It stars Nagarjuna Akkineni, Aamir Khan, Upendra, Shruti Haasan, Sathyaraj, and Soubin Shahir in prominent roles. (ANI)
