Jailer 2: Ala Bolelo appeals

Rajinikanth's upcoming film Jailer 2 directed by Nelson Dilip Kumar is attracting the attention of all as the film is the sequel to the hit film Jailer.

The makers today released the song Ala Bolelo. The song had a Malayalam touch with Rajinikanth and Shama Khasim dancing to the tune of Anirudh Ravichander. Arunraja Kamaraj penned the lyrics for the song sung by Niranjana Raman, Aparna Harikumar, and Deepthi Suresh.

It features Shamna, dressed in a traditional kasavu saree, dancing. Rajinikanth also makes an appearance, seemingly approving of it.The makers released the song as a Onam special and netizens trolled the makers for the same.

Reacting to the Malayalam pronunciation in the song, one user wrote, "Dear Tamils, please don't include Malayalam in your songs or dialogues unless it's pronounced correctly. Mispronouncing words, especially the 'la' sounds, can be really irritating to Malayalis and may feel disrespectful to our language. This is NOT Malayalam." Another commented, "Hire a lyricist and singer who know Malayalam."

The film is slated for release on 15 October 2026. Hrithik Roshan and Vijay Sethupathi are rumoured to be in the sequel. SJ Suryah, Mithun Chakraborty, Vidya Balan, Suraj Venjaramoodu, Anna Rajan and Jatin Sarna are joining the cast.
