Coolie starring Rajinikanth in the lead is a Tamil language action thriller that is all set to release in theaters on August 14, 2025. With Anirudh Ravichander for music, Coolie had a music video release for its first single Chikitu recently. The music video was released in two versions—Tamil and Telugu—since Coolie is also releasing in dubbed Telugu, Hindi, and Kannada versions.
Anirudh who also features in the music video for Chikitu, was spotted with impeccable lip sync in both Tamil and Telugu versions of Chikitu. This has now been revealed as the work of AI, which Anirudh and team seemingly employed to perfect the Telugu lyrics being mouthed.
The Telugu lip-sync done by AI looks so real. Full credit to Anirudh’s team for this next-level work! #Coolie #Chikituhttps://t.co/czWq5mDMoz

Chikitu is sung by Anirudh, Arivu, and veteran T Rajhendherr (TR). TR came up with the tune and term for Chikitu during an interview decades ago, which Anirudh turned into a full song. Besides Anirudh, T Rajhendherr also features in both the Tamil and Telugu music videos of Chikitu.
