Super Star out to Conquer Tollywood

Rajinikanth enjoys a tremendous following not only in Kollywood but also in Tollywood. All eyes are on his upcoming film Jailer 2, which is progressing at a brisk pace.

Jailer 2 is carrying immense buzz as it is the sequel to the hit film Jailer. The film stars Mohanlal, Shiva Rajkumar, Vijay Sethupathi, Mithun Chakraborty, SJ Suryah, Ramya Krishnan, Vidya Balan and Yogi Babu in key roles while Hrithik Roshan is doing a special role.

A senior distributor says "They have not yet begun discussions for the Telugu dubbing rights since the film is targeting an October release, although the final release date is yet to be officially confirmed,"

He continues "Rajinikanth is set to mesmerise Telugu audiences once again because he is playing an age-appropriate yet powerful role. The film also features multiple antagonists, which further elevates his larger-than-life screen image. It promises to be an entertaining blend of family drama and high-voltage action."

He adds "His charisma and trademark style appeal not only to older fans but also to younger audiences and family viewers, making him one of the few Tamil stars with a strong and loyal fan base in the Telugu states."

He points out "Rajinikanth's earlier film Jailer was a sensational success in the Telugu states, collecting over ₹35 crore net and more than ₹70 crore gross,"
