On the occasion of Onam, superstar Rajinikanth celebrated the festival on the sets of Coolie with an impromptu dance. The actor was seen dancing to the song ‘Manasilaayo’ from his upcoming film Vettaiyan.

Rajinikanth then breaks into a dance with the crew members of Coolie to the song ‘Manasilaayo’, sung by Anirudh Ravichander, Deepthi Suresh, Yugendran Vasudevan combined with the AI-revived voice of Malaysia Vasudevan.

Composed by Anirudh, the song which also features Manju Warrier, has emerged as a huge hit after the makers released its lyrical version on September 09, 2024. In the candid video on the sets of Coolie, Rajinikanth is seen insisting director Lokesh Kanagaraj to join him for the dance.
