This is the second venture announced by Raaj Kamal Films International in recent times. Before STR 48, Kamal announced that he will be teaming up with Mani Ratnam for a project, which will be his 234th film. After the earth-shattering success of Vikram, which minted about Rs 400 crore at the box office, Kamal has turned his focus towards producing films as well.

The actor-filmmaker is currently busy with the shoot of Indian 2, directed by Shankar. He recently shared a picture from the sets of the film with the action design team. Indian 2 is expected to be released this year, and Kamal will move on to his projects with Mani Ratnam and Mahesh Narayanan. He will also be returning as Vikram in Lokesh Kanagaraj’s film Vikram 2.
