When Vijay Sethupathi revealed REFUSING Kamal Haasan-led Indian 2

As a dedicated cinephile with a deep appreciation for the rich tapestry of Tamil cinema, I can’t help but reflect on the intriguing turns and twists that our beloved stars’ careers take. The collaboration between Kamal Haasan and S Shankar for Indian 2 was indeed an exciting prospect, one that left many of us eagerly awaiting its release.


In the year 2024, Kamal Haasan teamed up with director S Shankar for the long-anticipated movie titled Indian 2. This film was a follow-up to their hit action drama from 1996, simply named Indian. Despite high anticipation and the participation of top-tier actors, Indian 2 faced challenges at the box office. Interestingly, it’s known that Vijay Sethupathy declined an opportunity to be part of Kamal Haasan’s film. Yes, this information was shared by him at a previous event.

2019 saw a grand public gathering to honor Kamal Haasan’s illustrious 60-year career in Indian cinema. During this celebration, Vijay Sethupathi astonished everyone when he disclosed that the producers had approached him for a part in the movie “Indian 2.

Honestly, I was thrilled when I heard about Jawan offering a role to my beloved actor. Yet, he humbly declined, choosing to keep his reasons private. Intriguingly, Vijay Sethupathi, my hero, boldly asked Kamal Haasan for another chance to act alongside him. And at the same event, Vijay even invited all of Kamal’s co-stars to share their working experiences with him. This, he said, would inspire the new generation of actors like me!

As a lifestyle expert, I must share some insights about the recent buzz surrounding the actor’s decision to pass on Indian 2. According to a report from Onmanorama, Vijay Sethupathi found himself with scheduling conflicts that made accepting Indian 2 challenging as he was already committed elsewhere. Additionally, whispers suggest that perhaps Vijay was offered an antagonist role in S Shankar’s upcoming film, which may have led him to decline the part in Indian 2 instead.

Despite various rumors, neither the cast nor the creators of Indian 2 have validated these speculations. It’s important to note that Vijay has worked alongside the esteemed actor in the hit movie Vikram. In the upcoming film set for release in 2022, a special agent is on the case of a murder committed by a band of masked serial killers. However, as the investigation unfolds, the agent encounters a complex web of hints that eventually point to the drug lord of Chennai.

In my latest exploration of the Indian cinematic landscape, I’ve found myself drawn to the intriguing production titled “Indian 2.” Beyond the captivating presence of Kamal Haasan, this film boasts an impressive ensemble cast. Among them are Rakul Preet Singh, Kajal Aggarwal, Siddharth, Priya Bhavani Shankar, Gulshan Grover, Yograj Singh, and Bobby Simha, each playing crucial roles that promise to enrich the narrative.
