Creative director Shankar is contemplating to make sequel to Bharateeyudu and it will be named Indian 2. The Kamal Hassan starrer released in 1996 (Bharateeyudu in Telugu, Indian in Tamil and Hindustani in Hindi) was a sensational hit across the country. Released in Tamil, Telugu and Hindi, it bagged Kamal National Award, Film Fare and Tamil Nadu State Film Award for Best Actor. He played dual roles – father and son – and also starred Manisha Koirala and Urmila Matondkar as female leads. AR Rahman’s music too contributed a lot in its success.
As of now, Shankar is busy with Nanban, Tamil remake of Hindi 3 Idiots, the completion of which will see Indian 2 taking off. AM Rathnam will produce the sequel, too. It’s not yet known as to whether or not Kamal would be featured in the second instalment.
