Superstar
Rajinikanth's
latest
dark
comedy-action
film

rampage

box

expectations
in

a
loose
narration,
did
manage
to
set
the
ticket
counters
ringing.
Anirudh
Ravichander's
background
score
and
music,
and
Vijay
Karthik
Kannan's
cinematography
coupled
with
subtle
comedy
and
nuances
from
the
actors
make
Jailer
a
unique
experience
on
the
screen.
