Though the movie failed to maintain an uniform graph as the decline can be seen in the box office collection and there’s no scope to improve.Overall, “Indian 2” is a worthy sequel that fans of the original film and Shankar’s work will likely enjoy. It offers a mix of nostalgia and contemporary relevance, driven by Kamal Haasan’s compelling performance and Shankar’s ambitious vision.

The show was a fiasco

Kamal Haasan’s movie has been given the stage in different states to showcase its power. The film was released in Tamil, Telugu and Hindi.

Kamal Haasan’s movies are known to be more influential in the South rather than in the Hindi film industry. Ironically the movie has maintained its steadiness in the hindi version but has been failing in Tamil and Telugu.

Another work of Kamal Haasan released in the theatres a few days back. The movie “Kalki 2898 AD” was expected to cross 1000 crores but seems to be slowing down in the collections. A difficult comeback for Hasaan.
