Superstar Rajinikanth and director Nelson joined hands for the first time for an action entertainer Jailer being produced by Kalanithi Maran under the banner of Sun Pictures. Anirudh Ravichander scored the music and the first two songs became chartbusters. Hero Naga Chaitanya launched the theatrical trailer of the movie called- Jailer ShowCase.

The trailer focuses mainly on showing two distinctive personalities of Rajinikanth as a typical retired family man, and a furious man who spares no one when he gets into action. Although the trailer introduces other main characters like Jackie Shroff, Sunil, Ramya Krishnan, Yogi Babu, etc. it gives emphasis to Rajinikanth’s character who is a father of a police officer.

The dialogues are simple yet impactful. They are envisioned to show the other side of Rajinikanth’s character. "You have only seen him as a father of a policeman. But I'm familiar with his other face that you're not aware of," utters Jackie Shroff which designates Rajinikanth’s other shade in the movie.

Vijay Kartik Kannan's camera work is impeccable, whereas Anirudh Ravichander with his roaring score elevates every sequence that features Rajinikanth. The movie is edited by R Nirmal.

The superstar's superb screen presence and dialogue delivery are major attractions. The trailer has definitely taken the expectations on the movie to another level.

The movie has a stellar cast that includes Jackie Shroff, Shiva Rajkumar, Sunil, Ramya Krishnan, Vinayakan, Mirnaa Menon, and Mohanlal in a cameo appearance.

Jailer is slated for release on August 10th. Asian Multiplexes Pvt Ltd is releasing the film’s Telugu version.
