With Jailer, Rajinikanth scored a mammoth blockbuster. The movie gave the actor a huge sigh of relief after continuous failures. Nelson Dilipkumar directed the film. In a recent interview, the director shared some interesting details about the film. Nelson said that many advised him not to present Rajinikanth as an old guy.

Nelson stated, “People around me suggested that Rajinikanth sir should be allowed to do what he has been doing till now. A few also told me not to show Rajini sir in a salt-and-pepper look.” Nelson was determined to present the Superstar in the way he wanted. The director also said he was ready to take the blame if the result didn’t go his way.

Mohanlal and Shiv Rajkumar played crucial cameos. The biggie featured Tamanaah Bhatia, Ramya Krishna, Jackie Shroff, Mirnaa Menon, Sunil, Naga Babu, Yogi Babu, and Vasanth Ravi in other vital roles. Jailer is bankrolled by Sun Pictures and has its music rendered by Anirudh Ravichander.
