Jailer 2's first single, 'Ala Bolelo,' is out — and it's Shamna Kkasim who steals the spotlight in this Onam-ready number, with Rajinikanth making a brief dance appearance.

Composed and sung by Anirudh Ravichander, with lyrics by Arunraja Kamaraj and additional vocals by Niranjana Raman, Aparna Harikumar, and Deepthi Suresh, the four-minute video leans into a Kerala-inspired setting, with Shamna performing in a traditional kasavu saree.

The track naturally invites comparisons to Jailer's viral hit 'Kaavaalaa,' though its approach differs — trading glamour for a festive, regional flavour tied to Onam. Whether it can match 'Kaavaalaa's pan-Indian buzz remains to be seen, but online reaction has already zeroed in on Shamna's performance, with fans praising her for carrying the number.

Jailer 2, directed by Nelson Dilipkumar, releases in October.
