This year, superstar Rajinikanth celebrated his 75th birthday in a special way: on the set of his next movie, Jailer 2. Sun Pictures, the company that made the movie, released a special behind-the-scenes video to mark the occasion. In it, the legendary actor cuts a birthday cake with director Nelson Dilipkumar, cinematographer Vijay Kartik Kannan, and other important team members. The heartwarming pictures have since gone viral among fans, which has made the sequel even more exciting.
Muthuvel Pandian is back with Rajinikanth
In Jailer 2, Rajinikanth will play the role of "Tiger" Muthuvel Pandian again. He was a brave family man who became a vigilante in the 2023 hit movie Jailer. Ramya Krishnan, who plays his wife, will also be back in the sequel, which will keep the story going from the first movie.
This time, the people who made it are going to make an even bigger cast. Mohanlal and Shivarajkumar, who wowed audiences with their short roles in Jailer, are likely to come back. The sequel is also said to have a strong cast that includes Nandamuri Balakrishna, Vidya Balan, Suraj Venjaramoodu, and Mithun Chakraborty.
Star-studded cast
People are still talking about the movie's casting news. Vinayakan and Santhanam, two actors, have officially confirmed their roles, which will add variety to the film's tone. Meghana Raj Sarja has also said that she will be returning to Tamil cinema with a big part in Jailer 2. Anna Rajan, a Malayalam actress known for her amazing performance in Angamaly Diaries, is also in the cast.
Big Production, Big Hopes
Kalanithi Maran is making Jailer 2 on a large scale under the Sun Pictures name. Anirudh Ravichander, the composer, is back on the technical team after making music that topped the charts in the first movie. The core technical team is made up of cinematographer Vijay Kartik Kannan and editor R. Nirmal.
