Kamal Haasan's classic 1996 vigilante action film Indian is back on the big screen, generating excitement among fans ahead of its sequel Indian 2 releasing on July 12. The re-release, which hit theaters this Friday, has sparked a wave of celebration, with fans showering the film with love and a touch of recklessness.
A special screening at Kamala Cinemas in Chennai turned into a spectacle, with a video circulating online showing enthusiastic fans throwing confetti, cheering, and filming the screen as it freezes on a scene featuring Haasan's character, Senapathy. The excitement escalates further as some fans light fireworks inside the enclosed space, raising safety concerns.

Sun News also captured the celebratory mood, sharing a video of fans sporting custom-made "Indian is back" t-shirts. The footage offers a closer look at the risky act of igniting fireworks within the theater, with no reports on any potential damage or action taken against those involved.
Indian tells the story of Senapathy, a disillusioned freedom fighter and army veteran who transforms into a vigilante to combat corruption and injustice. The narrative throws Senapathy's ideals into stark contrast with those of his son, Chandrabose (also played by Haasan). The film concludes with a powerful message as Senapathy prioritizes the nation's well-being, even going so far to punish his own son for his corrupt ways. The ending leaves a lasting impression, with the promise of Senapathy's return whenever the country needs him.
The film has returned to over 600 screens worldwide, allowing fans across the globe to experience this timeless tale on the big screen once again.
Beyond the vigilante action, Indian boasts a stellar cast alongside Haasan. Sukanya, Senthil, Urmila Matondkar, and Manisha Koirala all deliver noteworthy performances, fleshing out the world Senapathy navigates in his fight for a better India.
Looking ahead, the upcoming sequel, Indian 2, promises to continue the story of Senapathy's fight against corruption. Helmed by Shankar, the film also stars Kajal Aggarwal, Siddharth and Rakul Preet Singh.
