After the massive success of ' Jailer ', Superstar Rajinikanth is all set to return in ' Jailer 2 ,' with Nelson Dilipkumar once again taking the director’s chair. The first film roared at the box office, collecting around ₹700 crore worldwide and winning both critical acclaim and mass love. Now, the sequel is actively in production, with shooting taking place in multiple locations across India. With momentum on its side, 'Jailer 2' is shaping up to be one of the biggest Indian films in the making.
Comic comeback and mass madness
A recent report from Filmibeat reveals that popular comedian-turned-hero Santhanam is likely to take on a prominent role in 'Jailer 2.' After establishing himself as a bankable solo lead, Santhanam has expressed interest in returning to comic roles—but only in films led by major stars. His inclusion in 'Jailer 2' marks a long-awaited comeback to the genre that made him a household name. With Nelson's knack for balancing humour and action, Santhanam's addition is expected to provide both comic relief and nostalgic delight.
Nagarjuna enters the arena
In another exciting development, Telugu superstar Nagarjuna Akkineni currently acting alongside Rajinikanth in 'Coolie' is reportedly in talks to join 'Jailer 2' in a key role. Talks are underway, and an official announcement is expected soon. If confirmed, this would mean Nagarjuna Akkineni appears in two back-to-back Rajinikanth films, adding major weight to the sequel’s star-studded line-up and strengthening its pan-Indian appeal.
A powerful sequel in the making
With Santhanam’s comic timing, Nagarjuna Akkineni’s mass appeal, and Nelson’s proven formula of stylized storytelling, 'Jailer 2' has all the ingredients for another blockbuster. As fans eagerly await official confirmations, one thing is certain, Rajinikanth’s cinematic reign continues, and 'Jailer 2' could be his next big triumph.
