Superstar Rajinikanth's film 'Jailer 2' is set to release in theaters on Thursday. It is one of the most highly anticipated films from South Indian cinema. Audience excitement is evident through pre-booking figures at theaters.

Advance bookings for 'Jailer 2' in Indian theaters began on October 10. The film also got off to a fantastic start in select international markets.
