Jailer was a big hit last year. This was a movie directed by Nelson Dilip Kumar after the failed movie Beast. Therefore, the audience did not have any high expectations. But the success of this movie was by making all the expectations misplaced. The global collection of this movie is around Rs 600 crores. This movie is produced by Kalanidhi Maran.
At the same time, the news that there will be a second part of this movie has already come out. The first part had Mohanlal and Shivraj Kumar in guest roles. They played cameo roles but these minute-long scenes made a big impact in the theater. The audience all said that Mohanlal has never seen such a mass appeal in recent times.
Now there are reports that another superstar will be added in the second part of this film. There are reports that this superstar will be Nandamuri Balakrishna. Nelson said in an interview that he was considered for the first part, but due to some technical reasons, it did not happen. Therefore, the possibility of him coming in the second part is very high.
Discussions are going on to bring Mohanlal and Shivraj Kumar in the second part. Meanwhile, there are reports that the script prepared by Nelson for this film has received the green signal from the producers and Rajinikanth. While Balakrishna is a superstar in Telugu, the reality is that he is just a comedy piece among the Malayalis.
