Jailer 2, featuring Rajinikanth in the lead role, is one of the most anticipated Indian films of 2026. For Kollywood, it’s a very important movie, and expectations are extremely high. It marks the reunion of director Nelson and Rajini after the blockbuster success of Jailer, and reportedly, the biggie has been mounted on a very huge scale. From the box office point of view, it’s said to be a bigger film than Coolie, potentially challenging almost every existing record.
The upcoming Kollywood action thriller is a sequel to Jailer, which turned out to be a big success upon its release in 2023. It managed to please both critics and audiences, resulting in solid global earnings. In fact, it’s said to be the best film of Thalaiva in the post-COVID era. With such goodwill, the upcoming sequel is expected to set the box office on fire.
Rajinikanth aims to make history at the Indian box office
The buzz is high for Jailer 2 on the ground level. While it will wreak havoc in the Tamil market, it is also expected to earn big outside Tamil Nadu. Despite not being a sequel, Coolie registered a mind-blowing start at the Indian box office by scoring 65 crore net. Now, with a sequel factor coming into play, Rajinikanth is all set to deliver a historic start.
