According to one theory, the plot revolves around a dreaded gang that tries to rescue their leader from prison where everyone else is stuck in a situation. The jailer of the film thwarts their plan. Needless to say, the jailer Muthuvel Pandian is played by Rajinikanth himself. This version is doing the rounds on social media.

The other version is that the plot revolves around idol theft. However, there is no confirmation of any of this so far from any official source from the film. Jailer marks Nelson Dilipkumar's maiden collaboration with Rajinikanth.

The film stars Rajinikanth, Shiva Rajkumar, Jackie Shroff, Mohanlal, Sunil, Ramya Krishnan, Tamanaah, Yogi Babu, Vasantha Ravi, Vinakayakan, Redin Kingsley and Jaffer Sadiq to name a few. While the film marks Shiva Rajkumar's debut in Tamil, Jailer marks Jackie Shroff's comeback after Bigil.

Music is by Anirudh Ravichander marking his third collaboration with the Superstar after Petta and Darbar. Two songs from the film, Kaavaala and Hukum have already set the internet on fire. Anirudh has set the social media ablaze with the high-octane numbers.

Cinematography is by Vijay Karthik Kannan and editing is by R Nirmal. Jailer is Rajinikanth's 169th film. The shoot for the film was held in different locations across the country. Jailer is bankrolled by Sun Pictures. The film is all set to hit screens on August 10.

Rajinikanth was last seen in Siruthai Siva's Annaaththe, which failed to set the cash registers ringing at the box office. On the other hand, Nelson Dilipkumar's last outing was Thalapathy Vijay's Beast, which also turned out to be a dampener at the box office.
