Indian 2: Makers trim 12 minutes amid lackluster reception

Kamal Haasan’s highly anticipated sequel Indian 2 (Bharateeyudu 2), directed by Shankar Shanmugam, premiered in cinemas last Friday to disappointing reviews, failing to attract significant audience attention.

Following its release, the filmmakers have officially announced a 12-minute reduction from its original 180-minute runtime. The specifics of what was cut remain undisclosed, leaving curiosity about how the trimmed version will be received.

Starring Siddharth, Rakul Preet Singh, and SJ Suryah in pivotal roles, Indian 2 is produced by Lyca Productions in association with Red Giant Movies, featuring music by Anirudh Ravichander.
