Actor Rajinikanth’s upcoming Tamil film, which marks his maiden collaboration with director Nelson Dilip Kumar, has been titled ‘Jailer’. Makers of the movie made the announcement over the weekend by unveiling the first poster, which features a blood-stained sickle. The project, which will also star Kannada actor Shivrajkumar in a pivotal role, will go on the floors soon.
Sun Pictures shared the title with the first poster, inviting a tsunami of comments asking if the movie will be a single-location film like Nelson’s last outing ‘Beast’. Fans wondered if 'Jailer' would be ‘filmed completely inside a prison’. One Twitter user wrote, “Nelson is taking up another biggest task of handling a star in a single location/major portions to be shot in single location… Let #Jailer have a strong villain to fight.”
On the work front, Rajinikanth was last seen in the Tamil film ‘Annaatthe’. The movie, which was also produced by Sun Pictures, featured actors Keerthy Suresh, Nayanthara, Khushbhu Sundar, Meena and Jagapathi Babu.
