Singapore Police go viral with slow-mo reel set to Rajinikanth's ‘Coolie' track, internet calls it a crossover hit

Singapore's finest have stepped into the spotlight — quite literally — and it's not just their usual display of law and order. In a surprise move that no one saw coming, the Singapore Police Force (SPF) posted a slow-motion reel of officers walking to 'Powerhouse', a thumping track from superstar Rajinikanth's upcoming film 'Coolie'. The video, which shows only the backs of the officers and the bold word 'POLICE' on their vests, is simple but striking. Set to the pulsating beats of 'Powerhouse', the clip is as dramatic as it is unexpected — and fans of both cinema and policing were quick to pick up on the unlikely crossover. The internet wasted no time in reacting, with comments that blended pop culture, fandom, and humour in true online fashion. One person summed it up perfectly: 'The power of Rajinikanth (sic)', while another wrote: 'Track on point (sic).' Others were more playful, suggesting insider knowledge: 'The marketing person must be an Indian (sic),' one user guessed. Another joked: 'Singapore Police part of the LCU confirmed' — a cheeky nod to the Lokesh Cinematic Universe helmed by Lokesh Kanagaraj. The former is also the director of 'Coolie'. And the tributes didn't stop there. One fan exclaimed, 'Even SPF realises the power of Superstar! (sic)', while perhaps the most internet-native comment came from someone who declared: 'We got 'Coolie X Singapore Police' collab before GTA 6 (sic).' While the post may have been light-hearted, it also shows just how far Rajinikanth's influence reaches. Coolie, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, has already generated buzz across the Indian film world — and now, thanks to a smart and stylish social media post, it seems even Singapore's police force is vibing with the Superstar's energy.

Javed Akhtar reveals why he has not seen his film in decades: 'Those who are lost in their history...'

Sholay is a film that has transcended generations. Be it Gen Z, Millennials, or the Boomers (its original audience), it has found love among every age group over the years. Many have admitted to watching it several times on repeat. So, it is interesting that one of the co-writers of the film - the legendary Javed Akhtar - admits he has not seen the film in years, maybe decades. And he has a sound reasoning for that. Javed Akhtar co-wrote Sholay along with Salim Khan. On moving past Sholay's success On August 15, Sholay completes 50 years of release. The film is the biggest box office hit in the history of Indian cinema, according to footfalls and inflation-adjusted gross. Javed Akhtar wrote the film's script along with Salim Khan during their Salim-Javed days. In a chat with Hindustan Times, the screenwriter-turned-lyricist said he cannot take credit for the film's success. "You should be happy with the work you have done if it is appreciated. But that umbilical cord needs to be cut. You cannot take the full credit for it. And you shouldn't, too. Now, you should think of what you need to do now, because you are always as relevant as your latest work. You can stay in your dreams, but it won't help. Those who are lost in their history have no hope from their future," he said. When asked how many times he has seen Sholay over the years, Javed Akhtar responded, "When it was released, I watched it 5-6 times because the initial reports were bad. The film was supposed to be a flop initially, so I watched to see how it had turned out. Once it was re-released in 70mm, I watched it again. Since then, I haven't watched it. I don't like to watch my old films." All about Sholay Sholay featured a heavy-duty star cast led by Sanjeev Kumar and also featuring Amitabh Bachchan, Dharmendra, Amjad Khan, Jaya Bachchan, and Hema Malini. It became the highest-grossing Indian film of all time, breaking Mughal-e-Azam's record upon its release in 1975. It held the record for over a decade until Disco Dancer overtook it. But Sholay still holds the record for most tickets sold by an Indian film. Over the years, it has become a pop culture phenomenon in India, with its characters becoming household names and its lines becoming memes and quotable quotes. The Ramesh Sippy film has been re-released several times, with the last re-release in 2005, to mark the film's 30th anniversary. A 4k restored version of Sholay will screen at the 50th edition of the Toronto International Film Festival in September this year. The film has been restored in 4K by Film Heritage Foundation in association with Sippy Films Pvt. Ltd.
