After Suraj Venjaramoodu and SJ Suryah, Vidya Balan joins Rajinikanth’s Jailer 2 as Kantha

After Suraj Venjaramoodu and SJ Suryah, Bollywood actress Vidya Balan has joined Rajinikanth's upcoming film Jailer 2 as Kantha. The action thriller, directed by Nelson Dilipkumar, is one of the most anticipated Indian movies of the year.

Sun Pictures, the production house behind the film, officially announced Vidya Balan's participation in Jailer 2 on September 20. The makers unveiled a clip that offers a sneak peek into her character.

Kantha makes her entry by climbing down a staircase, her body language setting her apart from others in the room. She holds her saree's pallu with her left hand and a burning cigarette in her right hand, emphasizing her strong presence.

In the video, Kantha declares, "Once you have come here, you can't simply leave without listening to what we say," while finally revealing her face as the clip concludes with her taking a drag from her cigarette.
