The cricketer recently revealed his excitement about watching the Tamil superstar’s latest film, Jailer 2, and even booked an entire theatre to enjoy the cinematic experience with his family and friends. Indian cricketer Sanju Samson may be used to fans cheering for his every shot on the cricket field, but there is one superstar who leaves him starstruck — none other than Rajinikanth .
The film also sees Ramya Krishnan, Yogi Babu, Mirnaa, and Rithvik reprising their roles, with SJ Suryah, Mithun Chakraborty, Suraj Venjaramoodu, and Vidya Balan joining the cast. Mohanlal, Shiva Rajkumar, and Jackie Shroff also reprise their cameo roles, with two Bollywood and Kollywood stars making surprise appearances.
Jailer 2’s worldwide collection has surpassed ₹ 477 crore. The cricketer, who was unable to catch the film earlier due to a professional commitment in Delhi, was thrilled to finally watch it on the big screen. In a video doing the rounds on social media, Sanju spoke about his admiration for Rajinikanth and how he always looks forward to watching the veteran actor’s films. So, I’m actually a day late. I try to watch as many of his movies as possible. I’ve invited my friends, and my wife is here too. I’m very excited to watch Rajini sir on the big screen. Everyone in the team and the support staff who knows Tamil is coming. He posted a picture of Rajinikanth and music composer Anirudh Ravichander on X and wrote, “Theatres are going bonkers! Thalaivar magic hits different. Thank you, dear audience, for the phenomenal love and reception for #Jailer2. Nothing beats seeing the audience celebrate it like this! Thank you all for the love and support.”
Speaking about his plans to watch the film, Sanju said, “I love watching Rajini sir’s movies, and I always look forward to his next film. Yesterday, we had an event in Delhi, which is why I couldn’t watch it. He further revealed that he had arranged a special screening for his loved ones, adding, “But today, fortunately, I was lucky enough to book the entire theatre. On Sunday, Dilipkumar thanked audiences for their love for the film.
