The trailer for 'Jailer', which was released on Wednesday, is a stunner. Netizens and industry observers are of the view that this is one of the best Rajinikanth trailers in a decade. The trailer for 'Peta' was cool, while 'Kabali' had a great teaser. Films like 'Kaala' and 'Darbar' barely managed to excite the Telugu audience.
For a change, the trailer for 'Jailer' is highly promising. While there are no great punchlines in it, the story arc and Rajini's character (nicknamed Tiger in the Telugu version) look compelling.
The film is going to hit the screens on August 10, just a day ahead of Chiranjeevi's 'Bholaa Shankar'. Megastar's movie is a remake. A lot of movie buffs are least excited about Chiru's movie because it is a remake. 'Jailer', on the other hand, is an original movie powered by a formidable trailer.
Another factor weighing against 'Bholaa Shankar' is that its director Meher Ramesh hasn't been successful. In terms of ratings and 'word of mouth' talk, 'Jailer' might most likely trump Chiru's movie. In terms of collections, though, Chiru is unbeatable in the Telugu States.
