Jailer, the 2023-released action thriller marked Rajinikanth’s first collaboration with talented filmmaker Nelson Dilipkumar. The movie broke almost every pre-existing box office record of Tamil cinema and emerged as one of the all-time blockbusters of the industry. Later, it was confirmed that the actor-director duo is set to reunite for the second installment in the franchise, which has been titled Jailer 2. Now, popular actor Yogi Babu, who plays a pivotal role in the franchise, has dropped major updates on the sequel.

The actor-comedian, who opened up about his combination with Nelson Dilipkumar, stated that he has been a part of the filmmaker’s journey right from the latter’s debut project, Kolamavu Kokila. Interestingly, Yogi Babu confirmed that they are set to team up again for Jailer 2, the sequel to Nelson’s previous outing Jailer which features superstar Rajinikanth in the lead role.

According to the celebrated actor, comedy is very tough to crack. However, director Nelson wrote special tracks for Yogi Babu in all his films, and Jailer 2 is the latest addition to the list. However, the actor-comedian refrained from revealing more details about the upcoming Rajinikanth starrer and his character in the film. But, from Yogi Babu’s words, it is safe to assume that the talented actor is going to have a very interesting part in Jailer 2, which is unarguably one of the most anticipated upcoming projects in Tamil cinema.
