In the newest episode of the Pinkvilla Masterclass, S Shankar opens up about Hindustani 2 and the idea of turning the franchise into trilogy. The maverick filmmaker goes back in time when he thought of creating his own vigilante cinematic universe by bringing together Kamal Haasan as Senapathy, Rajinikanth as Sivaji, and Vikram as Aparichit. S Shankar also shares that his next could be either a period drama, spy thriller, or sci-fi with underwater elements. The legendary filmmaker gives an update on Ram Charan’s next, Game Changer, and a probable feature film with Shah Rukh Khan.
