Indian 2, the much awaited follow-up starring kamal haasan and helmed by Shankar, was predicted to be a big success. But at the box office, the movie has been a complete failure. Despite the great expectations placed on it, trade analysts report that the film has underperformed, taking in barely 85 crores locally and 50 crores internationally for a total of 135 crores globally.
 
The distributor/producer split is under 70 crores. This stands in sharp contrast to its large 250 crore production budget, which has resulted in large losses. After the movie was utterly rejected, early indications indicated that indian 2 will be released early on streaming services. It seems, nevertheless, that there will be a delay in its publication.
 
The movie's poor performance has been a big obstacle for its OTT distribution. At first, Netflix supposedly paid between 100 and 120 crores to acquire the streaming rights to indian 2. However, Netflix refuses to uphold the previously agreed-upon 120 crores and is instead demanding a sizable refund. OTT platforms have begun modifying their final arrangements lately in response to a movie's box office performance.
 
As a result, talks between Netflix and the indian 2 producers are in progress, delaying the movie's OTT debut. A major setback for a filmmaker of Shankar's calibre is that OTT has refused to show indian 2. shankar must have been very troubled by the movie's box office collapse and the issues surrounding its over-the-top (OTT) distribution, as he had never experienced such rejection. With Game Changer, which is expected to rebuild Shankar's career and bring him the kind of success that his earlier films have had, fans and industry watchers are now looking for a spectacular return from the actor.
