Rajinikanth’s upcoming film Jailer, directed by Nelson Dilipkumar of Doctor fame, will be released on August 10, 2023. Sun Pictures, the production house of Jailer, took to Twitter to share the much-awaited update of the film. Along with the release date, the makers also unveiled a teaser, which gave blink-and-you-miss shots of the entire cast. However, Rajinikanth gets a kickass scene towards the end of the promo with a raging background score.

Looks like Nelson has gone all out with the film which promises to be an out-and-out action drama.

Watch Jailer’s new promo:

Rajinikanth didn’t have a release in 2022, and his last film Annaatthe was panned for its outdated performances and story. Hence, there are a lot of expectations for the upcoming film Jailer. On top of that, Nelson, who became a top director with the success of Doctor, disappointed fans with Vijay’s Beast, which was a box office dud. After the major debacle, it was even rumoured that he was dropped from Rajinikanth’s film.

However, Rajini stuck with Nelson, and the film was shot across the country in multiple schedules. Jailer also brings together several superstars of the country. On top of Rajinikanth, the film has Malayalam star Mohanlal and Kannada star Shivarajkumar in important roles. Bollywood actor Jackie Shroff is also playing a role in the film, which has music by Anirudh Ravichander. Tamannaah Bhatia, Sunil, Ramya Krishnan, Redin Kingsley, and Vinayakan also star in Jailer.
