Kamal Haasan’s Indian 2, directed by Shankar, ended up being one of the biggest flops in Kollywood. The film received outright negative talk right from the premiers, and it was heavily panned by critics. However, the movie team is going ahead with the release of Indian 3. The third installment’s trailer was played at the end of the second part.

Initially, it was announced that Indian 3 will be released during the Pongal season next year. However, the latest buzz in Tamil film circles suggests that Kamal Haasan’s Thug Life, directed by Mani Rathnam, will hit the screens ahead of Indian 3. The word is that Thug Life makers are planning to release the film in January 2025.

Thug Life is in the final stage of production, and the post-production works are also happening simultaneously. If Thug Life releases at the beginning of 2025, Indian 3 might be postponed to Summer. If that happens, it is, in one way, good for Indian 3. Till December, Shankar will be busy with Game Changer, and the delay in Indian 3’s release will allow Shankar more time to take additional care regarding the output. Let’s see what happens.
