It is well known what type of financial damages Shankar's
indian 2 suffered. It was released with much anticipation and ended up being Shankar's worst career failure. With an unneeded sequel, many
believe shankar lost his touch and damaged a masterpiece like Indian.
indian 3 was shown at the end of
indian 2.
indian 2 was originally intended to be a one movie, but it was divided into two parts after going over budget. But the plot was too shallow to be spread throughout two movies.
Therefore, the
audience has little interest in seeing
indian 3. About 60 to 70 percent of
indian 3 has been filmed and is prepared. According to certain sources, the creators chose to release
indian 3 straight on OTT after seeing the reception to
indian 2 and the lack of interest in the film. However, new rumors from the
tamil film
industry indicate that
indian 3 may resume production as
shankar wishes to make amends and see the film through to completion.
Some adjustments were recommended by Kamal Haasan, and more sequences would be filmed. The expenditure may go beyond an additional 100 crores if reshoots are necessary. It's unclear if
lyca productions would make more investments in light of the unforeseen expenses and losses incurred in previous projects like
chandramukhi 2, Lal Salaam, and
indian 2. Talks, however, indicate that a new timetable may begin shortly. According to Kamal Haasan, who has been excited about the project,
indian 3 captures the essence of the narrative. He believes that the suggested adjustments will fix
indian 2's shortcomings and enthrall viewers.
