Yesterday, Lyca Productions filed a court case against Shankar for not completing Indian 2. They requested the court to issue an order, banning Shankar from directing other projects before completing Indian 2.
However, the court rejected Lyca’s plea of banning Shankar from directing other projects. The court mentioned that it cannot stop the director from working on other projects. This should come as a big relief to Shankar who is planning to helm RC15 which will have Ram Charan in the lead role.
The court ordered Shankar to respond to the case filed by Lyca before 15th of this month.
In their statement, Lyca Productions mentioned that Shankar had agreed to complete Indian 2 on a budget of Rs 180 crores but the production cost is amounting to Rs 236 crores already and the moreover the project is stalled.
Shankar will now have to respond to Lyca’s case by 15th of April.
It is known that Indian 2 stars Kamal Hassan and Kajal in important roles. The shoot was halted after a freak accident on the sets and both Kamal Hassan and Shankar moved on to other projects.
