Is Rajinikanth’s ‘Jailer 2’ to be postponed from its October release due to reshoots? Here’s the official clarification – Exclusive
The release date of Rajinikanth’s ‘Jailer 2’ has become a talking point again, with October 15 still being the date announced for the much-awaited sequel. However, fresh reports about the film’s production have shifted attention away from the release date toward its current status. While there has been speculation about changes to the film, the latest update suggests that the team is moving ahead with post-production as planned.
‘Jailer 2’ shoot clarified
The biggest clarification is about the reports claiming that Jailer 2 is undergoing reshoots. A source close to the project has confirmed ETimes about the movie’s update. “There is no reshoot happening at present. The untrimmed cut of ‘Jailer 2’ is completely ready, while the remaining post-production work is progressing. Fans need not worry about additional shooting affecting the film’s release plans. The team is currently focused on completing the technical work rather than returning to the sets.”
Anirudh’s background score work remains key for ‘Jailer 2’
The next major stage for ‘Jailer 2’ is reportedly the background score. Music composer Anirudh Ravichander is expected to begin work on the film’s background score once he is available. Sources indicate that if he starts the work in the coming days, the score could potentially be completed within around a month. This makes Anirudh’s schedule an important factor in the final post-production timeline. With the main cut reportedly ready, the background score and other finishing work are now expected to play a key role in getting the film ready for its theatrical release.
‘Jailer 2’ to face a strong box office clash
Despite the latest rumours surrounding the film, ‘Jailer 2’ still has a possibility of reaching theatres on October 15. Confusion exists because a few Telugu films are reportedly considering the October 16 weekend. Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna’s ‘Ranabaali’ has been announced for October 16, while Venkatesh and Trivikram Srinivas’ ‘Adarsha Kutumbam’ (AK 47) is also said to be looking at the same window.
