Jailer 2′ shooting wrap” *The Times of India*, where the actor addressed his fans directly about the status of the action entertainer and his next project, *Dharman*.

The confirmation is a significant moment for the franchise. *Jailer* (2023), directed by [Nelson Dilipkumar](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nelson_Dilipkumar), became one of Tamil cinema’s biggest theatrical hits, turning the original into a bonafide mass entertainer. The sequel has been on every trade watchlist since its greenlight, and [Rajinikanth](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rajinikanth)‘s update suggests post-production is now the focus for the team. “The shooting has been completed,” Rajinikanth said, signalling that the team is now firmly in the edit, VFX, and music-composition phase.

## What the Video Reveals

The video, shared on *The Times of India*‘s official entertainment channel, shows Rajinikanth in a relaxed, conversational mood. While the bulk of the clip is centred on *Jailer 2*, the actor also confirmed that shooting for another project titled *Dharman* is currently underway.

That double-update makes the clip a two-in-one reveal for fans, covering the wrap of one title and the production stage of another. For trade analysts, the *Jailer 2* wrap announcement triggers the countdown to a likely 2027 theatrical window. Tamil big-ticket releases typically require a 4-6 month post-production runway, meaning the marketing and trailer rollout should land in the first half of 2027 if the team holds to standard schedules. Worth noting: the original *Jailer* also went through a clean post-production cycle, with Anirudh Ravichander’s score emerging as a major theatrical draw in its own right.
