Malayalam actor Soubin Shahir got a bunch of newer audiences across the nation take note of him with 2024's survival thriller Manjummel Boys. And now, he is dialling that up several notches, with a pivotal antagonist role in Superstar Rajinikanth's Coolie, which releases in theatres on August 14, 2025. He's already grabbed eyeballs with his energetic moves in the special song Monica from Coolie, in which audiences reckon he outshone Pooja Hegde and has had Rajinikanth shower him with praise galore after seeing Soubin in action on the set of the film. Soubin Shahir in Coolie Here's a look at 4 recent films available on OTTplay Premium that we think are worth a watch on OTT to know what Soubin's made of Pravinkoodu Shaapu Soubin Shahir joined actor-filmmaker Basil Joseph in this black comedy crime thriller written and directed by Sreeraj Sreenivasan. Soubin played a waiter at a local toddy shop that becomes a crime scene, when the shop owner is found dead after heavy rain forces 11 people to stay put overnight, which they spend drinking and playing cards. The film follows the investigation into what turns out to be premeditated murder, by Basil's character. Manjummel Boys Written and directed by Chidambaram, the survival thriller Manjummel Boys is based on a real-life incident that happened in the Guna caves back in 2006. The film follows a group of friends from Manjummel, who head out on a road trip to Kodaikanal, when tragedy strikes one of them, who slips through a crevice in a restricted area and gets stuck deep within the Guna caves, a hole from which localites believe there is no coming back. Soubin played Kuttan, one of the friends, whose grit and determination to get his buddy out of this precarious situation ensured a life was saved. The actor also served as producer on the film, it was the highest grossing Malayalam film ever, until L2: Empuraan broke that record. Romancham This horror comedy written and directed by debutant Jithu Madhavan was based on real-life experiences the filmmaker and his friends had during their college days. Soubin was joined by Arjun Ashokan, Sajin Gopu, Siju Sunny, among others, in this tale about a bunch of collegians trying to summon a spirit with an Ouija board and the troubles that befall them thereafter. Romancham was a big hit and became one of the highest grossing Malayalam movies of 2023. The film was remade in Hindi as Kapkapii, but did not enjoy the success of the original. Bheeshma Parvam Amal Neerad's action thriller film had Soubin as Mammootty's right-hand man in a tale of power dynamics between feuding families. Bheeshma Parvam is also the film in which Soubin showed off his dance skills in the song Parudeesa, which Malayali audiences highlighted after the Coolie song Monica went viral and non-Malayalis began calling the actor a non-dancer.

50 Years Of Rajinikanth: Kamal Haasan, Mammootty, Mohanlal, Hrithik Roshan celebrate Thalaivar

Rajinikanth - The name is enough to turn the cinema into a stadium. The legendary actor, who debuted with Apoorva Raagangal on August 15, 1975, has completed 50 years in cinema. It is a rare feat for an Indian actor. More than working for a continuous five decades, staying relevant and maintaining unreal superstardom is what makes Rajinikanth a brand in himself.

A special cheer to my darling daughter @shrutihaasan, keep shining bright." Hrithik Roshan, who is bringing War 2 against Coolie and is set for a box office clash, recalled his formattive years and wrote, "Took my first steps as an actor at your side. You were one of my first teachers, @rajinikanth sir, and continue to be an inspiration and a standard. Congratulations on completing 50 years of on-screen magic!" Malayalam legend Mammootty wrote, "Heartfelt congratulations to dear @rajinikanth on completing 50 glorious years in cinema. It was truly an honour to share the screen with you. Wishing you the very best for #Coolie. Keep inspiring and shining always." Another legend Mohanlal, who also shared screen with Thalaivar in Jailer, tweeted, "Fifty years of unmatched charisma, dedication, and magic on screen!
