Despite featuring top composer Anirudh Ravichander, "Indian 2" struggles to capture significant attention. To achieve good box office collections, the film's content must be highly impressive. This movie serves as a litmus test for many involved, particularly director Shankar, whose recent films like "Snehitudu," "I," and "2.0" fell short of expectations. The film's journey has been marred by delays, an unfortunate accident, and a legal battle between shankar and the lyca productions banner, creating negative buzz. Additionally, ram Charan's "Game Changer" faced several issues due to "Indian 2."
The film's success is crucial for Shankar, who needs a hit to restore his reputation. kamal haasan also needs "Indian 2" to be a major success, as much of the credit for "Vikram's" success was attributed to director Lokesh Kanagaraj. With so much at stake, both shankar and kamal haasan hope "Indian 2" will overcome its challenges and achieve the success they need.
