This remarkable achievement secures the second-highest opening day record in Rajinikanth's illustrious career. As a long weekend approaches, 'Jailer' is poised for an exciting and sensational run at the box office.
Directed by Nelson Dilipkumar, the film originally had plans for a cameo role in its Telugu version, featuring none other than Nandamuri Balakrishna. Nelson revealed that he had initially considered Balakrishna for the role, but due to challenges in fitting the character seamlessly into the script, the idea did not materialize.
Fans were undoubtedly disappointed by this missed opportunity, as the prospect of witnessing two colossal superstars, Rajinikanth and Balakrishna, sharing the silver screen was tantalizing. The collaboration would have offered a visual spectacle and an intense cinematic experience.
Furthermore, this cameo would have marked a significant milestone for Balakrishna, who had never undertaken such a role in his illustrious career. For fans, this cinematic collaboration would have undoubtedly felt like a festive celebration, adding another layer of excitement to the movie's release.
