7 August 2023, Mumbai: The much-awaited Rajinikanth starrer, Jailer, is all set to grace the silver screen on August 10, accompanied by a star-studded ensemble cast, featuring the likes of Mohanlal, Jackie Shroff, Shiva Rajkumar, Sunil, Ramya Krishnan, Vinayakan, Mirnaa Menon, and Tamannaah Bhatia. Directed by the talented Nelson Dilipkumar, the film has already created a buzz with its chartbuster soundtrack composed by Anirudh Ravichander. As the anticipation for Jailer reaches sky-high levels, reports have surfaced that certain offices in Chennai and Bengaluru are going the extra mile to show their reverence for the Thalaiva by declaring a holiday on its release day.
Rajnikanth’s Craze among Fans!
This phenomenon is not new when it comes to Rajinikanth’s films. His unparalleled stardom has often prompted companies to give their employees a day off to watch his movies. Such gestures are a testament to the otherworldly craze and admiration that the Kaala actor commands among his fans and the general public alike. In a remarkable move, one company has even gone a step further by gifting free tickets to its employees, intending to discourage piracy and support the success of Jailer.
After Kabali, Rajnikanth prepares for another Blockbuster
The notice released by the company, declaring the holiday on August 10, has quickly gained immense traction on social media, further fueling the frenzy surrounding the film’s release. The company’s rationale behind granting leave is to avoid a pileup of leave requests from employees who are eager to witness the magic of Rajinikanth on the big screen. This grand gesture by corporations echoes the sentiments seen during the release of Rajinikanth’s previous films, including the blockbuster hit Kabali in 2016. Back then, numerous companies also declared holidays for their employees to relish the cinematic extravaganza. Seven years may have passed since Kabali’s release, but the undying fervor and jubilant atmosphere that accompanies a Rajinikanth film remain unchanged.
The streets of Chennai and Bengaluru are painted with excitement Despite varied receptions for his recent films, Rajinikanth’s fandom remains steadfast and unwavering, solidifying his status as a true superstar among superstars. The magnetic pull of his aura continues to captivate hearts, ensuring that his movies are celebrated with unparalleled enthusiasm and exuberance. As Jailer gears up for its big release, the streets of Chennai and Bengaluru are painted with excitement, and fans eagerly anticipate witnessing the charisma of their beloved Rajinikanth once again. The spectacle of a Rajinikanth film unfolding on the silver screen is not merely a movie premiere; it is a celebration of an icon whose stardom knows no bounds.
