Internet reacts to Anirudh's success
Following the event, someone on Reddit wrote, “How is Anirudh not even getting a Thank You from Sun Pictures for Jailer's success.” “In my personal opinion, Anirudh is a second protagonist of Jailer. His presence is not there visually but his music's presence is up there with Rajnikanth's. Anirudh did a phenomenonal job in Jailer. Every single scene is electrifying as it is due to his music. But when celebrating Jailer's success, it's just Rajnikanth and Nelson getting rained with kudos, Cheques and Cars,” also read an excerpt from the post.
Agreeing with the same, one user commented, “Same happened during Vikram. He wasn't gifted anything from Raj Kamal.” “Anirudh holding the bigs of Tamil First it was for Vikram and now for Jailer,” added another while one more said, “He elevated both of those films to whole another level, his music almost played a character in each scene.”
Anirudh composed the music for Rajinikanth’s 169th film Jailer, directed by Nelson. However, it isn't his first collaboration with the superstar. The two have worked together in the films, Petta and Darbar. In fact, Jailer is Anirudh's fourth with Nelson after Kolamaavu Kokila, Doctor and Beast.
Jailer also stars Vinayakan, Ramya Krishnan, Vasanth Ravi, Tamannaah Bhatia, Shiva Rajkumar, Mohanlal and Jackie Shroff in key roles. It was released on August 10.
