It is a sequel to the 1996 blockbuster 'Indian'.

Speaking at the trailer launch function recently, Shankar stated that the film is envisioned with Indian 'thatha' in the present day. He mentioned that while the first part was primarily set in Tamil Nadu, they have expanded the geographical scope in the sequel.

"In the first film, they had only used prosthetics for approximately 20 days, whereas in the sequel, it extends to over 70 days. Shankar remarked on the dedication of the lead actor, mentioning that he is the last to leave the shooting spot every day. He added that viewers can expect to see more of Kamal as an actor in the sequel," Shankar said.

Music director Anirudh said that he feels surreal to watch the trailer on big screen. "I can see the hard work that everyone has put together in this film and it will definitely show when you see it in theatres. Indian 2 will definitely create a mark," he added.
