Kamal Haasan, who was recently seen in Kalki 2898 AD which is currently running in theatres, is busy promoting his upcoming film Indian 2. The multi-faceted actor is currently touring India to promote the film. Indian 2 is directed by S Shankar and set to hit theatres on July 12.

Kamal Haasan to also play Senapathy’s father

Kamal Haasan, recently revealed in conversation with Pinkvilla that, he will not only be reprising his role as Senapathy in the film, but will also be playing Senapathy’s father. Kamal Haasan said, “I am also playing Senapathy's father which is not there this time and you have to wait. That is the hook for Indian 3. Now you will understand why I took up Indian 2 because I was waiting for the dessert and I have to go through the main course.”

For the unversed, in the 1996 film Indian, which serves the first instalment, Kamal Haasan plays dual characters, a father and son. The film revolves around a former freedom fighter named Senapathy, who turns into a vigilante to get rid of corruption in society. The film ends on the note that Senapathy shows no prejudice and kills his own son who indulges in bribery. With the second part focussing on Senapathy’s journey, the makers have also shot the third part which will have portions revolving around Senapathy’s father, played by Kamal. Indian 2 is available for streaming on Aha Tamil and OTTplay Premium.
