Chennai : Veteran actor Rajinikanth on Saturday announced that filming for his highly anticipated sequel Jailer 2 has been completed, with the project now moving into the final phase of post-production.
He also revealed that the makers will soon officially declare the film's release date, further building excitement among fans.
Interacting with the media at Chennai airport, Rajinikanth said that the shoot has wrapped up and the film is nearing completion, adding that an official release announcement is expected shortly.
Jailer 2 comes on the back of the massive success of its predecessor Jailer, which performed impressively at the box office.
Beyond 'Jailer 2', Rajinikanth also gave a major update on the new collaboration with fellow industry icon Kamal Haasan.
The project, tentatively referred to as KH x RK, is expected to bring together two of Tamil cinema's most influential figures on screen. According to Rajinikanth, shooting for the film is scheduled to begin in August 2026.
The collaboration has already generated considerable buzz, especially after a promo video released earlier in February showcased the distinct style of director Nelson Dilipkumar and music composer Anirudh Ravichander. The clip featured a lively exchange between Rajinikanth and Kamal Haasan, ending with a signature moment of Rajinikanth's screen presence.
The project is being backed by Red Giant Movies, further adding to its scale and anticipation.
Meanwhile, he is also set to appear in 'Thalaivar 173', directed by Cibi Chakravarti and backed by Kamal Haasan.
Kamal Haasan, on his part, was last seen in 'Thug Life', directed by Mani Ratnam.
