Director Nelson's film Jailer 2 has been on a phenomenal run at the box office ever since its theatrical release on October 15, Thursday. So far, the film has grossed around 600 crore at the global box office. It also continues to get positive appreciation from audiences and the film fraternity. The latest to commend the film is actor Allu Arjun.
Taking to social media, the Happy and Pushpa star wrote about the film, “A true showcase of Rajinikanth sir’s star power, swag & aura! A Commercial Entertainer that keeps the adrenaline pumping!” Addressing Anirudh as his ‘brother,” the actor said that the composer has “killed it,” referring to the latter's music in the film.
Allu Arjun added, “All the artists, technicians & the producer have poured their hearts into this film. The Showman Nelson garu delivers the coolest hit with a BANG!”
Allu Arjun is an admirer of Rajinikanth the Superstar and the human being. In an old interview with Behindwoods TV, the actor lauded Rajinikanth’s journey from being a bus conductor in Bengaluru to becoming one of India's biggest stars ever and underscored his humility.
Allu Arjun spent a considerable part of his younger days in Chennai, where he developed a deep connection with Tamil cinema. He has often shared that he used to watch the first-day, first-show of Rajinikanth's films and considers himself a "Chennai boy" at heart.
Coming back to Jailer 2, the film also stars returning cast members Ramya Krishnan, Yogi Babu, Mirnaa, and Jaffer Sadiq, alongside recurring cameo appearances from Mohanlal, Shivarajkumar, Jackie Shroff, and Vinayakan. On the other hand, the new cast additions to the Jailer sequel include Namo Narayana, SJ Suryah, Mithun Chakraborty, Vidya Balan, Suraj Venjaramoodu, Jatin Sarna, Hakim Shah, Hrithik Roshan, and Vijay Sethupathi.
