Jailer, starring Rajinikanth in the lead role and directed by Nelson Dilipkumar, has unquestionably emerged as one of the blockbuster hits of 2023. The film boasts powerful cameos from industry veterans such as Mohanlal, Shiva Rajkumar, and Jackie Shroff.
Despite the film’s success, there have been recent reports concerning the remuneration of its antagonist, Vinayakan, that have raised eyebrows. Certain media outlets have reported that Vinayakan received a mere Rs. 35 lakhs, a figure significantly lower than what other key players in the project were rumored to have received.
In a recent interview, Vinayakan took it upon himself to debunk these rumours and clarify the matter. He emphatically stated that these rumours were entirely baseless and clarified that, in reality, he received a compensation package three times greater than what had been inaccurately reported.
Additionally, Vinayakan expressed his heartfelt appreciation for the respect and excellent treatment he received from the entire team during the filming process, effectively quashing these groundless speculations.
