Vivekh's death adds to Shankar- Kamal Haasan Indian 2 woes

The sudden death of comedian Vivekh has created a problem for Indian 2 directed by Shankar. The comedian had acted in lengthy portions with Kamal Haasan and has a pivotal role. The film of Vivekh awaiting release is Yaadhum Oore Yaavarum Kelir with Vijay Sethupathi. It is for the first time that Sethupathi and Vivek had come  together.


Vivekh took ill when he was acting in retail consumer chain owner Legend Saravana's film directed by JD- Jerry. Recently Vivekh had posted pixs of him at outdoor shoot in Kulu Manali.

Indian 2 has Vivekh playing a pivotal role along with Kamal Haasan. Sources say that Vivekh's role was not of a mere comedian but of a satirical do-gooder who is an accomplice of Kamal in the film. He also comes in various  disguises. Even if changes to the plot can be done, finding a suitable voice to dub is a problem says a senior dubbing artiste.

Lyca Productions had moved the court to restrain Shankar from committing new films till Indian 2 was over. The court declined to stay the director from entering into new assignments. Last week the court granted permission to Lyca to go in appeal against the verdict to not restrain the director. 

A fire accident that resulted in fatalities had made the producer's pay compensation, The shooting did not re-start and the set erected in EVP is still lying unused and in shambles. The floor rent for the multi- crore set is mounting.
