The Story in Brief
m9.news reports that Rajinikanth's Jailer 2 has secured a Rs 160 crore OTT deal with Amazon Prime Video, said to be the biggest-ever digital rights deal for a Tamil film. The figure surpasses Leo's reported Rs 120 crore and Coolie's similar deal. Trade circles call it a strong business start for the Rajinikanth-Nelson Dilipkumar sequel.
No official confirmation has come from the makers or Amazon Prime Video. If true, the deal gives the film a huge cushion ahead of its theatrical release, though box office numbers will remain the bigger test.
The Indian Opinion
The Rs 160 crore figure is being celebrated as a sign of Rajinikanth's untouchable market, but it remains an unconfirmed trade report. OTT platforms have paid big for star vehicles before, only to see mediocre results inside theatres. The real test will be whether Jailer 2 earns its hype when tickets go on sale, not when a streaming giant writes a cheque.
