CHENNAI: Bollywood star Jackie Shroff is the latest addition to the cast of Rajinikanth's much-anticipated film ''Jailer'', the makers announced on Sunday.

The upcoming Tamil movie is directed by Nelson Dilipkumar and produced by Sun Pictures.

The production banner, a division of Sun TV Network Limited, shared Shroff's casting on its official Twitter page.

''Jackie Shroff from the sets of #Jailer,'' Sun Pictures captioned the actor's first look from the film.

Shroff has previously worked on the Rajinikanth-starrer ''Kochadaiiyaan'', a 2014 animated action movie.

''Jailer'' also stars Tamannaah Bhatia, Sunil, Dr Shiva Rajkumar, Ramya Krishnan, Yogi Babu, Vasanth Ravi, and Vinayakan.
