The sequel to Vishwaroopam would also be Kamal Haasan's first film after his political plunge.In February, Kamal Haasan launched his party Makkal Needhi Maiam (MNM) with fighting corruption and development as its key agenda. The party is also adopting eight villages to showcase it's model of development.
Vishwaroopam was initially banned by the then Jayalalithaa government in 2013 but the Madras High Court ordered its release and it turned into a super hit at the box office.
Vishwaroopam 2, a spy thriller, is also expected to be a political film. The film, stars Rahul Bose, Pooja Kumar, Andrea Jermiah, Shekhar Kapoor, Waheeda Rehman, Jaideep Ahlawat, Nasser, Anant Mahadevan, Yusuf Hussain and Rajendra Gupta. Mohammed Ghibran scores music.
Kamal Haasan's trailer comes close on the heels of the release of actor-turned-politician superstar Rajinikanth's Kaala, which has run into rough weather in neighbouring Karnataka following his pro Tamil Nadu comments on the Cauvery issue. Though the Supreme Court has given its final verdict on the Cauvery issue following which the centre has constituted the Cauvery Management Authority to distribute waters to Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, Kamal Haasan has been promoting talks between both states triggering criticism. Recently, he met Karnataka Chief Minister H D Kumarasamy too in this regard.
Kamal Haasan has at least two more films in hand - Indian 2, by director Shankar, the sequel to his Indian and Sabash Naidu.
