Then Yash appears as Ravana.The trailer then moves to introduce Ranbir Kapoor as Rama, the ideal man.The trailer shows Yash as a symbol of bad behavior and Ranbir as the one who brings back good values.

Jailer 2 Telugu: Good But Not A Super Start!

 Rajinikanth's Jailer 2 was released with very little promotion.The film also had limited promotion in Tamil Nadu and couldn't hold any public event because of some unknown reasons.All these factors kept Jailer 2 from getting much attention.


The film received mixed reactions from some audiences and critics recently.

Even though there wasn't a lot of hype and the reactions were mixed, Jailer 2 did well at the box office on its first day.The film did well in many places, once again showing the strong appeal and popularity of the superstar.


According to trade sources, Jailer 2 made more than Rs 125 crore worldwide on its opening day, including the overseas releases.

This is a great start for a film that had limited promotion and only decent buzz.With no major Tamil films coming out and the Dasara holidays helping, Jailer 2 has started well at the box office.


Meanwhile, the Telugu version of Jailer 2 opened with around Rs 15 crore, according to early estimates, and the exact numbers are still coming in.

This isn't a strong start for Rajinikanth's film in Telugu, especially when considering its pre-release business.It will be interesting to see if the film improves from here.Since Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika's Ranabaali is coming out today, it's worth watching how it affects Jailer 2's performance in the Telugu market.


The coming weekend and the remaining Dasara holidays look like good times for the film.

However, with big targets in every region, Thalaivar needs to attract more viewers in the coming days to make Jailer 2 a successful movie.Let's hope for the best.
