Jailer Showcase

The trailer begins with a shot of a bunch of cars being blown apart by a number of men aiming from afar. The scene then cuts to introduce Rajinikanth’s character, who is named ‘Tiger’ Muthuvel Pandian. He presents himself as a humble, soft-spoken guy who has a separate personality that is kept hidden from his family and the people around him. But when needed, he can take down the bad guys in a matter of seconds with his sword. As he flashes his smile after slashing the goons, the title card introduces him as Superstar Rajni.

A brief glimpse of Jackie Shroff

The Showcase then gives a glimpse of a terrifying Jackie Shroff as he threatens Rajinikanth on a phone call. As Rajinikanth prepares to take down the goons by slashing them mercilessly. The trailer ends with him armed with a bunch of men guarding him as he walks ahead in slow motion and adjusts his sunglasses. Jailer also stars Ramya Krishnan, Tamannaah and Vinayakan in supporting roles.
