Indian 2, starring Kamal Haasan and directed by Shankar, was planned as a single part, but due to the big runtime and cost, it was divided into two parts. Now, the next part, Indian 3, is hit by the budget bomb.
Most of the shoot of the third part of the film had already been completed before the release of Indian 2, and the plan was to release it in July and complete the balance shoot of the third part and release the film immediately.
But Indian 2’s result came as a shocker to the team, and it was not only an outright disaster, but it also received huge criticism and trolls, including Kamal Haasan’s performance. With that, Indian 3 was put on hold, and at the same time, Shankar’s other film, Game Changer, and Kamal Haasan’s Thug Life ended up as huge disasters.
Indian 3’s progress halted because of the budget issues
Kamal, Shankar, and the producers had multiple meetings to discuss and complete the balance shooting and release the next part. But reportedly, producers are not ready to spend a big budget on the remaining portion of the shoot.
There is also a buzz that Shankar is not convinced to complete the remaining shoot according to the producers quoted amount. So, the budget woes hit Shankar and Kamal Haasan’s Indian 3, and that is the reason for the film not going on floors.
We need to wait and see if these problems get resolved and the third part of Indian gets on track.
