A fan asked action director Chethan D’Souza whether Mohanlal himself appeared in Jailer 2’s climax car sequence or a body double was used. The question was posted under an Instagram post about the film’s stunt cinematography.

The Times of India and The Indian Express report Chethan’s reply: “It’s him.” The response identifies Mohanlal as appearing in the sequence under discussion. It does not provide a detailed breakdown of how the scene was filmed.

The fan also asked why Mohanlal’s introduction had been trimmed. The reports say Chethan did not answer that part. His car-scene response therefore cannot establish why footage was removed or what decisions were made during editing.

Mohanlal reprises Mathew, introduced in the 2023 Jailer. The latest reply concerns his appearance in one car sequence; it does not establish that no double, rig or other filmmaking assistance was used anywhere in the sequel.
