Shankar’s Indian 2 featuring Kamal Haasan has been the most controversial project in Kollywood. The sequel to 1996 blockbuster ‘Indian’ this film has seen multiple court orders and allegations from makers on both Shankar and Kamal Haasan among many controversies.
It was earlier rumoured that Indian 2 is now shelved. However, speaking in a recent media interaction, Kamal Haasan cleared some air about the movie. The film’s shooting came to an abrupt end last year. But now, the veteran Kollywood actor has confirmed that the shooting will resume soon. This statement from ‘Ulaganayagan’ has given great joy to his fans.
Indian 2 also brought great legal troubles for Shankar as well. Lyca Productions who are backing the project accused that the maverick director already used up Rs 180 crore of the allotted Rs 236 crores budget. The makers have demanded a restraining order on Shankar from working on any other project till Indian 2 is completed.
According to a mutually agreed settlement with Lyca, Shankar was supposed to resume directing the project last December. This sequel requires a shoot of around 100 Days more and is targeting Diwali 2022 (for now).
Meanwhile, Shankar is currently busy with Ram Charan’s RC15 while Kamal Haasan is awaiting the release of his action thriller Vikram.
