The two-minute clip starts from where the first part of the movie ended. Calling from a phone booth, Indian says in his heavy voice that he will come back whenever injustice happens, “Jaha pe anyay hoga, main waha zaroor aaunga (Wherever there would be injustice, I will appear.)
He adds further, 'Hindustani ki maut nahi hogi (Indian is immortal).”
)
Further, we can see that a social media campaign with the hashtag ''#Come Back Indian'' is going on to bring back the aged freedom fighter to end the corruption and injustice going on in society.
At the end of the teaser, we see Kamal as Senapathy aka Indian and Hindustani, donning a khaki uniform. Needless to say, Haasan looks unrecognisable as an old man.

Apart from Haasan, the movie stars Siddharth, the late Malayalam veteran Nedumudi Venu, Kajal Aggarwal, Rakul Preet Singh, Priya Bhavani Shankar, Guru Somasundaram and others. The movie is backed by Subaskaran Allirajah and Udhayanidhi Stalin. Anirudh Ravichander has composed the music.

As per recent reports, Indian 2 will be released in two parts. The makers have decided to split the movie into two parts due to its length. The film brings Shankar and Haasan back together after 24 years.
Since the official announcement in 2017, the sequel has been all over the news. However, the movie has witnessed delay due to various reasons.
