Is Shankar planning to reshoot Indian 3 with shocking budget?
After the mixed reception of Indian 2, there are reports that director Shankar is considering reshooting scenes for the highly anticipated Indian 3, starring Kamal Haasan. Sources suggest that Indian 3 has been sent back to the production phase, where additional scenes may be filmed based on suggestions from Haasan himself. If the reshoot proceeds, it could push the film’s budget past 100 crores.
Shankar is reportedly making these changes to avoid the issues that affected Indian 2, which skipped a theatrical release and went directly to OTT due to its extended runtime and narrative weaknesses. The director wants to ensure Indian 3 delivers a more focused and engaging story. There is no official confirmation yet, but rumors are swirling about a new shooting schedule.

Fans are eager to see what Indian 3 will offer, especially after the success of the original 1996 film, Indian, where Haasan played the iconic role of Senapathy, a vigilante fighting corruption. The hints for Indian 3 were left at the end of Indian 2, building excitement among the audience.
Currently, Shankar is also busy with Game Changer, starring Ram Charan, while Kamal Haasan is working on his next project, Thug Life.
