Possible thermostat stuck in close position and not letting coolant through to radiator.Remove the thermostat and check if thermostat working properly or not.Drop the thermostat in a small pail of hot water approximately 80-90 C and see if thermostat opens or remain close.If remain close,then u need to replace one.
