Shruti Haasan hilariously had to prove she's the heroine of Coolie after a security guard stopped her from entering a Chennai theatre. Actor Shruti Haasan had a rather amusing start to the first day, first show of Coolie in Chennai. The actress, who stars in Lokesh Kanagaraj's latest directorial, was stopped by an overzealous security guard at the entrance of the theatre and had to convince him that she was indeed part of the film. The funny moment was captured by Shruti's friend, rapper Yung Raja, who later shared it on Instagram stories. The video quickly spread across social media, delighting fans and theatre owners alike. Shruti Pleads With Guard: 'I'm the Heroine, Sir' In the viral clip, Shruti is seen sitting in a car with friends on her way to catch Coolie in Chennai. As they attempted to enter the venue, a security guard stopped them, seemingly unaware of who she was. Shruti responded with laughter, politely telling him, 'I'm in the movie. Please allow me, anna (brother). I am the heroine, sir," leaving everyone around her in splits. The guard eventually allowed her entry after the humorous exchange. Vettri Theatres proprietor Rakesh Gowthaman also reshared the video on X (formerly Twitter), calling the moment a result of his staff's 'overperforming' duties. He wrote, 'My man Raayal over performed his duty. Hilarious moment. Thanks for being with us @shrutihaasan mam… Hope you enjoyed the show!!! #CoolieFDFS in #Vettri." Fans loved Shruti's lightheartedness in the situation. One user commented, 'I love the way she calls Sir, respect towards people." Another quipped, 'Shruti Haasan – Heroine ❌ Audience ✅." Many others noted how endearing it was that she addressed the guard respectfully despite the confusion. Coolie's Mega Release In Coolie, Shruti plays Preethi alongside an ensemble cast featuring Rajinikanth, Nagarjuna, Soubin Shahir, Sathyaraj, Upendra, and Aamir Khan. Produced by Sun Pictures, the film features music composed by Anirudh Ravichander. Released on August 14, the Rajinikanth-starrer clashed with Ayan Mukerji's War 2 at the box office. Despite the competition, Coolie made an impressive ₹150 crore worldwide on its opening day, cementing its status as a blockbuster. While Shruti may not have expected to justify her presence at her own film's screening, the viral moment added to the celebratory buzz around Coolie. Fans continue to share the clip widely, enjoying the mix of hilarity and humility from the actress.
