Kamal Haasan’s highly anticipated sequel, “Indian 2,” is finally nearing its release after a tumultuous production journey. The film, a follow-up to the 1996 vigilante action classic “Indian,” has garnered immense attention not only for its star power but also for the challenges it faced during filming.
Haasan himself recently shed light on the film’s ballooning budget, attributing it to the unforeseen circumstances of the COVID-19 pandemic and tragic on-set accidents. These events significantly disrupted the production schedule and drove up costs. Haasan lauded the unwavering commitment of both Lyca Productions, the film’s producer, and director S. Shankar. He commended their persistence in safeguarding the project, refusing to abandon it in the face of adversity.
“The budget wasn’t solely determined by the director or the script,” Haasan remarked. “COVID dictated our budget, and certain accidents led to delays, impacting the financial aspects.” He acknowledged the ease with which the project could have been shelved, but the unwavering resolve of Lyca and Shankar to see it through completion is truly commendable.
“Indian 2” represents more than just a cinematic experience; it embodies the spirit of perseverance. The film’s enduring appeal lies not only in its star-studded cast, featuring Haasan himself in a double role, but also in the remarkable collaboration between him and director Shankar. This potent combination has generated significant buzz and secured a record-breaking deal in the Telugu states, highlighting the immense anticipation surrounding the project.
Despite the numerous obstacles encountered during production, “Indian 2” stands as a testament to the unwavering dedication of its creators. The film’s eventual release promises to be a momentous occasion, not only for fans of the original but for cinema enthusiasts worldwide.
