Shah Rukh Khan to cameo in Rajinikanth's Jailer 2?

In an interview with SITI Cinema, the veteran actor shared a little bit of information about his antagonistic role in Jailer 2. A clip of his interview is now going viral online, where he mentions in Bangla going up against "Rajinikanth, Mohanlal, Shah Rukh Khan, Ramya Krishnan, Shiva Rajkumar," in the sequel. Many believe that all these actors will be featured in the Tamil film. Mohanlal appeared in the first film as a guest star, while Shiva Rajkumar, Mithun Chakraborty, and Vinayakan are slated to appear in Jailer 2 in cameo roles. Other names being shared out to be part of the ensemble cast include SJ Suryah, Ramya Krishnan, Vijay Sethupathi, Yogi Babu, Mirnaa, Anna Rajan, and Vidya Balan. Shah Rukh's participation in Thalaivar's next after turning 75 would take the cake, though.
