The Saturday gathering united members of the Jailer 2 team to celebrate the reported box office achievement. The ensemble cast features returning actors such as Ramya Krishnan, Mirnaa, Vinayakan, Yogi Babu, Shivarajkumar, Mohanlal, and Jaffer Sadiq. The sequel also expands its roster with names including Namo Narayana, Suraj Venjaramoodu, SJ Suryah, Kottayam Nazeer, Vidya Balan, Mithun Chakraborty, Hakkim Shah, Hrithik Roshan, and Apeksha Porwal, alongside a brief cameo by Vijay Sethupathi. Reports indicated that portions featuring Mohanlal, Shivarajkumar, Hakkim Shah, and Vijay Sethupathi were removed from the final cut, while Santhanam did not appear in the theatrical version. Nevertheless, Santhanam joined the Saturday celebrations, highlighting that the event extended beyond the actors appearing on screen.
Rare IMAX Screening Appearance
Rajinikanth Jailer 2 success celebrations also featured a rare public appearance by the Superstar at an IMAX screening with fans. Marking what was reportedly his first public appearance of this kind in 40 years, the visit allowed audiences to see the actor outside a traditional promotional event. Sun Pictures shared a video documenting the star’s arrival at the venue, where director Nelson welcomed him. Jailer 2 marks the first film starring Rajinikanth to receive a wide IMAX release, adding a new milestone to the theatrical presentation of his projects. The combination of the box office milestone and the fan screening gave the occasion a personal touch.
