Good Bad Ugly, directed by Adhik Ravichandran and produced by Mythri Movie Makers, is a Tamil action-comedy featuring Ajith Kumar in the lead role. The film also stars Trisha Krishnan, Arjun Das, Sunil, and Jackie Shroff. It opened strong with â¹29 crore on day one, but saw a surprising dip on day two, collecting just â¹13.5 crore. That’s over a 65% drop, which has raised a few eyebrows in the industry. With a two-day total of â¹42.75 crore, trade experts are already wondering if the initial excitement is wearing off too soon.

Meanwhile, Rajinikanth is gearing up for Jailer 2, the much-awaited sequel to his 2023 blockbuster. Directed by Nelson Dilipkumar and backed by Kalanithi Maran under Sun Pictures, the film will see Rajinikanth return as Tiger Muthuvel Pandian, a retired jailer with a no-nonsense attitude. The team includes music composer Anirudh Ravichander, cinematographer Vijay Kartik Kannan, and editor R. Nirmal—many of the same names behind the first film’s success.

Adding to the fun, Yogi Babu joins the cast as Vimal, a lively taxi driver who’s expected to bring plenty of laughs. With a solid crew, a strong storyline, and Rajinikanth back in action, Jailer 2 is already shaping up to be one of the year’s most talked-about releases.
It’s always a treat for fans when two icons like Rajinikanth and Ajith share moments of mutual respect—it reminds everyone why these stars continue to rule hearts across generations.
