Rajinikanth will be back on the big screen on August 10. This time he will be accompanied by a star-studded cast, including the likes of Mohanlal, Jackie Shroff, Shiva Rajkumar, Sunil, Ramya Krishnan, Vinayakan, Mirnaa Menon, and Tamannaah Bhatia. All in all, Jailer is grand in every sense of the word.  As the film comes out with sky-high expectations, reports are coming up that a few offices in Chennai and Bengaluru will provide an off to their employees the day Jailer releases. It is not the first time that such a thing has happened when a Rajinikanth film has been released. Even for many of his previous films, there were reports that employees were granted a leave to watch a Rajinikanth film on the very first day of its release. The company went so far as to grant free tickets to its employees to avoid piracy. The notice that a company released stating that it will be shut down on August 10 is currently gaining heavy traction from netizens. 
Kabali was released on July 22, 2016, with humongous hype. Many companies declared a holiday for their employees on the day the film was released. This news received a lot of traction back then. Even though seven years have passed since Kabali was released, the craze and festive vibe, when a Rajinikanth film comes out, remains the exact same. Although the reception of his films has been varied, especially in the last couple of years, the fanfare that a Rajinikanth film enjoys is a true testament to the fact that he is truly a superstar among the superstars. The movie is also expected to do good overseas. According to movie distributor in the USA, Venky Reviews, Jailer is on track to record the highest premieres for an Indian movie in 2023. Reportedly, it has crossed Rs 10Cr advance bookings overseas.
