Indian 2 OTT release date: Know when and where to watch Kamal Haasan and S Shankar's film

As a dedicated follower of Tamil cinema and a long-time admirer of Kamal Haasan‘s acting prowess, I can’t help but feel both excitement and nostalgia at the upcoming digital release of Indian 2 on Netflix. The original film was a landmark in Indian cinema, and its sequel promises to continue the legacy of Senapathy’s unwavering fight against corruption.


The upcoming Indian movie featuring Kamal Haasan, which hits theaters on July 12, 2024, is actually the sequel to a 1996 hit of the same name. In this film, Haasan returns as Senapathy, a well-known character known for his vigilante fight against corruption. Despite facing several production delays, it’s finally ready to be released digitally.

Netflix has revealed that the upcoming film Indian 2 will be available on its platform in Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Malayalam languages. The movie, starring Kamal Haasan, is set to premiere within a week, specifically on August 9th. Announcing this, Netflix posted a teaser for the film with the caption, “Father will return, the son will be found. #Indian2 is arriving on Netflix on 8th August in Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada!”

Earlier reports indicated that Netflix had purchased the post-cinema streaming rights for Indian Film 2 at a significant price before it premiered in theaters. Yet, according to rumors, Netflix tried to renegotiate the deal because the film underperformed financially at the box office, earning approximately Rs 50 crore throughout its entire theater run, which was considered a commercial flop. However, it appears that the disagreement has been resolved as the movie is now scheduled for its streaming release.

In the sequel to the Indian film, we find ourselves years later with Senapathy, who has become a martial arts master in Taiwan. The tale unfolds when a band of YouTube influencers, headed by Chitra Aravindan (portrayed by Siddharth), unearth signs of corruption and launch an online movement to bring Senapathy back to India. With the viral hashtag #ComeBackIndian, they manage to persuade him to return and continue his fight against corruption. He inspires the younger generation to expose dishonest practices, even within their homes, triggering a chain of intense and sorrowful incidents.

Beyond being smitten by Kamal Haasan, this film also showcased Siddharth, Rakul Preet Singh, and others in pivotal positions. Conversely, I can hardly contain my excitement for Indian 3, set to hit theaters in January 2025. Kajal Aggarwal will grace our screens with a substantial role in this film, which serves as a prequel to the Indian movie franchise.
