Rajinikanth’s Jailer craze: Chennai and Bengaluru offices announce leave on film’s release day

In Jailer, Rajinikanth portrays the role of a retired police officer, marking his first collaboration with director Nelson Dilipkumar. During the film’s audio launch, Rajinikanth recounted how he came across the script and praised Nelson’s laid-back approach on set, referring to him as a ‘chilled-out guy.’ He said, “After Annaatthe, I listened to many scripts but I didn’t like any. And stopped the process altogether and thought let’s see about it later. Then I was told by Kannan of Sun Pictures, who is a friend of Nelson, that he (Nelson) has a story for me. By then, Nelson was shooting for Beast in North India. So, I waited till he returned. When he finally came back, I asked to set a time and asked if 10 am would be fine. Kannan said Nelson gets up pretty late as he sleeps late. I was like what’s this behaviour even before the start of the film. Then he finally set a time around 11:3o.”

The film boasts a captivating score by Anirudh Ravichander and features a stellar cast, including Tamannaah Bhatia, Sunil, Yogi Babu, Vasanth Ravi, and Mirnaa Menon. Bollywood actor Jackie Shroff will be seen in a negative role. Additionally, Jailer will have special appearances by legendary actors Mohanlal and Shivarajkumar.
