Jailer 2 Song Promo Draws Mixed Reactions Over Malayalam PronunciationPreviousNext

A promo for the song 'Ala Bolelo' from Rajinikanth's upcoming film Jailer 2, set to release on October 15, has sparked mixed reactions. While some fans appreciated the song, others criticized the Malayalam pronunciation, calling it inaccurate and irritating. Critics urged the filmmakers to hire Malayalam-speaking lyricists and singers for authenticity. The film, directed by Nelson Dilipkumar and produced by Sun Pictures, features a star-studded cast and has music composed by Anirudh Ravichander.
