Filmmaker Karthik Subbaraj recently took to social media to review the Kamal Haasan-starrer. The director hailed Kamal Haasan's performance and called Shankar his inspiration. Karthik Subbaraj admired the latest vigilante drama and wrote, “#Indian2... Enjoyed @shankarshanmugh sir's iconic big thoughts and 'Larger than Life' scale execution of those thoughts on screen. You are an inspiration always, sir. Kamal sir, as always, was lit. And to see Senapathy's intro with the Indian Theme was a Nostalgic High!! Liked the way the film punches out some hard reality on the faces of aspiring rebels and sets up a dramatic stage for #Indian3. Can't wait for the standoff between @ikamalhassan sir and @sjsuryah sir ... Gonna be Crazy!!”

Interestingly, Karthik Subbaraj has penned the screenplay for Shankar's next film Game Changer which has Ram Charan playing the lead.
