Pooja Hegde's Dance Number Monica From Rajinikanth's Coolie Crosses 5 Million Views In A Day
Coolie, Rajinikanth's highly anticipated film, is generating a lot of enthusiasm among fans. The film's second song, Monica, which stars Pooja Hegde in a gorgeous avatar, has now been released. Coolie, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, features an all-star cast that includes a cameo by Bollywood actor Aamir Khan. It will be released in theatres on August 14, and promises a mix of action, drama and entertainment.
Within a day of its release, the music video had clocked in 5 million views and the makers shared the happy news on their official Instagram handle. Sharing a snippet from the music video, they wrote, 'Thalaiyae suththavaikkum, sooravali ponnachi!5M+ love for our sensational #Monica. Watch the second single #Monica from #Coolie starring Pooja Hegde."
Pooja Hegde as Monica looks lovely in her red sparkly gown with a high slit. Her movement, combined with Soubin Shahir's rare dance skills to Anirudh Ravichander's sounds, makes it the ideal party song. The song is sung by Sublahshini, Anirudh Ravichander, Rap by Asal Kolaar and lyrics by Vishnu Edavan.
Reportedly, Coolie is expected to reach audiences in more than 100 countries when it opens on August 14. Apart from Rajinikanth, the film stars Nagarjuna, Sathyaraj, Aamir Khan, Upendra, Soubin Shahir and Shruti Haasan. Anirudh composed the music for the film, his fourth consecutive collaboration with director Lokesh Kanagaraj. Girish Gangadharan is the film's cinematographer, and Philomin Raj is the editor.
The film is highly anticipated because it will reunite actors Sathyaraj and Rajinikanth after nearly 38 years. The two last appeared together in the 1986 Tamil film 'Mr Bharath', in which Sathyaraj played Rajinikanth's father. Interestingly, Sathyaraj turned down chances to appear in some of Rajinikanth's other films, including Enthiran and Sivaji.
Coolie is Rajinikanth's 171st film, which is about gold smuggling. Interestingly, filmmaker Lokesh Kanakaraj has stated that Coolie will be a standalone film, not part of his Lokesh Cinematic Universe. War 2, directed by Ayan Mukerji and starring Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR, is also slated to compete with Rajinikanth's film at the box office, and fans are excited to watch both blockbusters in theatres.

"Never Trying These": Internet Reacts To Viral Video Of Burger Popsicles
If you're a foodie, chances are that burgers hold a special place in both your heart and your stomach. From classic cheeseburgers to over-the-top creations, they've long been a go-to snack for satisfying sudden hunger pangs. And now, thanks to the internet's wild imagination, burgers have undergone some truly bizarre makeovers. Remember the paan burger? Or the gulab jamun burger? Well, brace yourself - there's a new addition to the list: Cheeseburger Popsicles. Yep, that's a thing now. A woman has shared a video showing how to make them, and let's just say the internet isn't exactly drooling. In the video, the food vlogger is seen making cheeseburger popsicles using a mould. She starts by adding ground beef as the first layer, followed by shredded cheese, lettuce, and pickles. She tops it off with ketchup and mustard, then places it in the freezer overnight. The next day, the cheeseburger popsicles are ready to eat. The food vlogger describes them as "a perfect poolside meal and perfect for your summer parties." Also Read: US Restaurant Run By Robot Chefs Serves Burgers In Under 30 Seconds Watch the full video here: View this post on Instagram A post shared by juliette (@itsmejuliette) The video has racked up nearly 4 million views on Instagram - and it's no surprise, given how unusual the recipe is. While some viewers were simply curious, others didn't hold back from sharing their honest (and often hilarious) reactions in the comments section. One user wrote, "I don't want a cold cheeseburger." Another added, "Y'all just be doing anything lol." A viewer sarcastically said, "Love getting down to the bottom and just biting condiments." "Never going to this party," read a comment. A user wrote, "Straight to jail." "These are perfect if you don't want anyone to hang out with you," remarked a viewer.
