Kamal return as Senapathy
In the film, Kamal revives the role of Senapathy, called 'Indian Thatha' lovingly by fans. He fights corruption, armed with the ancient martial art practice of India, 'varma kalai'.
The decision to revive Senapathy's character, who would be 106 years old as per the plot, was one of the questions the Indian 2 team had to often field when they met the press during promotional tours. At a press conference in Mumbai in June, Kamal had joked that he would like to act even when he turns 120 years old.
When Shankar spoke about Senapathy's age
Shankar had defended his decision by pointing out to a 120-year-old Chinese martial artist. "There is a martial art master in China, his name is Lu Zijian. At the age of 120 he is performing martial arts, he is flying and kicking and all. This Senapathy character is also a master, master in an ancient martial art called Varma," Shankar had said as quoted by news agency PTI. Indian 2 hit the theatres on July 12.
