Superstar Rajinikanth refused to share his opinion on Vijay's Jana Nayagan being held by the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) over scenes that could hurt people's sentiments. He spoke to the media outside the Chennai airport on Wednesday. The actor shared updates on Jailer 2 and his much anticipated film with Kamal Haasan, tentatively titled RKxKH.

When asked about his opinion on the delay in Jana Nayagan's release, Rajinikanth said, "I don't want to comment on it."

He was then asked about the status of director Nelson Dilipkumar's Jailer 2. To which, he said, "Jailer 2 is yet to be wrapped up, we still have 2-3 days of shooting left. The film's release date will be announced by the production house."

Earlier this year, it was announced that Rajinikanth and Kamal Haasan would join hands for a film directed by Nelson Dilipkumar. The RKxKH marks the reunion of the two legends after nearly 46 years.

Regarding the anticipated film, he said, "The RKxKH film will begin in August. The story has been set, and any more details will be announced by the director."

The Vettaiyan actor also shared his two-cents on fans getting aggressive at events recently in Tamil Nadu. Addressing this, he said, "Youngsters should be careful at public events. If they get hurt, it affects them. Hence, they should be more careful."

When asked about the one piece of advice he wants to share with youngsters, he said, "They should concentrate on education. If they give up on education, they will suffer later in their lives. They should keep this in mind, pursue their education and keep themselves healthy. Youngsters should say no to alcohol and narcotic substances. If you indulge in these practices, you ruin your entire life, along with your family's. Stay away from friends who indulge in such practices."

On the work front, Rajinikanth was last seen in director Lokesh Kanagaraj's Coolie. He will be seen next in Jailer 2, which is slated to release in June. An official confirmation is still awaited.
