#Indian2 is a worse disaster than #Viswaroopam2.

Alas, it has failed even to kick off, such a bore & a waste of money. #Bharateeyudu2

Just done with the show🎥#KamalHaasan acting peaks 💥 #Shankar missed his mark #Siddharth #Rakul did good 👍 #Anirudh music 👍💥
Film is bit slow in screenplay
Intervel and climax stunts worked well
Overall my review: 🌟🌟1/2#Indian2 #Indian3 #Bharateeyudu2 #Shankar

Despite an exceptionally talented cast and crew, including visual effects supervisor V. Srinivas Mohan, editor A. Sreekar Prasad, production designer T. Muthuraj, cinematographers Ravi Varman and R. Rathnavelu, and composer Anirudh Ravichander, the film has not been able to leave a mark. Sharing a review of the film, a social media user gave the film two and a half stars, writing: "Just done with the show. #KamalHaasan acting peaks 💥 #Shankar missed his mark #Siddharth #Rakul did good 👍 #Anirudh music 👍💥 Film is bit slow in screenplay.

Thank you, Shankar, for consistently wasting Kamal's time over the years, and more importantly, my time. It's clear you've lost your touch. Please consider retiring soon.

For the first time i feel like running away from an Aandavar film within just the first half #Indian2

Second half was average. Shankar tries hard, but it’s just grander and no content. Overall sums up my feelings… #GoBackIndian #Indian2 #FDFS pic.twitter.com/cYEUsYjINv

PSA: #Indian2 is Shankar’s career worst, Kamal’s career worst movie.

Don’t even consider watching it. Indian’s legacy has been royally butchered. #KamalHaasan𓃵 #Shankar #AnirudhRavichander

Cringe factory. Yet to see second half but I don’t have to. Very bad!
