After it was announced in February that Superstar Rajinikanth's upcoming film will be with director Nelson Dilipkumar of 'Kolamaavu Kokila' and 'Doctor' fame, the makers had revealed that the film, which was tentatively called as 'Thalaivar 169' has been titled 'Jailer'. While we had earlier reported that the film is being planned to begin in August, the latest is that the pre-production work for the film is now almost complete and that the pooja will be taking place on the 3rd of August.

The film is said to be an action thriller where a group of gangsters plan a jailbreak with superstar Rajinikanth playing an experienced jailer, who stops the jailbreak. Reports are that the film will have a huge cast consisting of Priyanka Mohan, Shivrajkumar, Aishwarya Rai, Ramya Krishnan and others.

Produced by Sun Pictures, who are the producers of Nelson Dilipkumar's 'Beast' as well, the film will be directed by Nelson Dilipkumar with music by Anirudh. While there have been reports that the team has approached Aishwarya Rai Bachchan to pair opposite Rajinikanth and Priyanka Mohan might be playing an important role in the film, the cast and crew of the film is yet to be finalised.
