Kamal Haasan and director Shankar’s Indian 3 is once again creating curiosity in Kollywood. The film was expected to continue the story after Indian 2, but the sequel’s disappointing response left the third installment’s future uncertain.
Following the underwhelming performance of Indian 2, the makers reportedly put Indian 3 on hold. However, fresh reports from Kollywood circles suggest that the project could soon move forward, with the team said to be considering restarting its pending post-production work.
A significant portion of Indian 3 was reportedly filmed along with Indian 2, which means the makers may not have a major shooting schedule left. Only certain patchwork portions and computer-generated effects are believed to be pending. If the latest reports are accurate, the team is looking to complete these remaining works and take the film towards release.
The project is particularly important for director Shankar, who has faced back-to-back challenges with the performances of Indian 2 and Game Changer. A successful comeback with Indian 3 could therefore prove significant for the filmmaker.
Kamal Haasan’s return as the iconic Senapathy is another major factor keeping expectations alive. Given the scale of the franchise and the material that has already been shot, fans are eager to know whether the third installment will finally make it to theatres.
For now, there is no official confirmation regarding the release plans. However, if the latest industry reports are anything to go by, an announcement from the makers could be on the cards soon.
