Mithun Chakraborty is playing villain role in Rajinikanth’s Jailer 2. But before signing the film, the veteran actor reportedly made one request to the Superstar. He did not want Rajinikanth to beat him up or shoot him in the film.
Rajinikanth reportedly shared that Mithun was not immediately convinced about playing the role. The actor had one concern about facing the Superstar on screen: he did not want his character to get beaten up by him. Mithun eventually agreed to the film, but only after making his condition clear. He eventually agreed to join the film, but made it clear that he wanted his character to be spared from both the Superstar’s punches and bullets.
The condition makes for an interesting story behind the making of Jailer 2. Rajinikanth‘s face-offs with villains are often a highlight of his films, so Mithun’s request adds a little humour to their on-screen pairing. It also leaves fans wondering how director Nelson Dilipkumar has planned their interactions in the sequel.
Rajinikanth’s Jailer which released in 2023 was a tremendous hit at that time. The film’s action, humour and surprise appearances helped it alot. Now, with Mithun Chakraborty joining the sequel, fans will be curious to see how the two veterans share the screen and whether the Superstar honours Mithun’s reported request.
