Indian 2 was in limbo for over two years. The production came to a grinding halt after a terrible accident on the sets in February 2020, which killed three crew members and injured several. After the mishap,┬аKamal recalled that тАШhe miraculously escapedтАЩ┬аthe accident as he was also present on the sets at the time. тАЬI was just a few seconds, a fewer meter
s away from the spot where the mishap occurred and miraculously escaped from joining the list of fatalities. I can hardly express my trauma and agony in words,тАЭ he had said.
Following the tragic accident, the Covid-induced lockdown delayed the production of the movie further. And Shankar also had a fallout with the producers at Lyca Productions. After a series of court battles and negotiations, the project was resumed with Red Giant Movies coming aboard as co-producers.
Shankar had also┬аexpressed his regret┬аvia a social media post. тАЬIt is with utmost grief, IтАЩm tweeting. Since the tragic incident, IтАЩve been in a state of shock & having sleepless nights on the loss of my AD & crew. Having missed the crane by a whisker, I feel it wouldтАЩve been better if it was on me. Heartfelt condolences & prayers to the families,тАЭ he had tweeted at the time.
