Hyderabad, May 18, 2021: In February this, actor Ram Charan had announced his collaboration with director Shankar Shanmugam, commonly known as Shankar. The movie is supposed to go on floors next month in June, but things have changed now due to the second wave of covid-19 and the legal tussle between the director and Lyca Productions.

Besides Ram Charan's film, Shankar also has Kamal Haasan starrer "Indian 2" which is just 50% completed. Lyca Productions, which is producing Haasan's film, approached Madras High Court alleging that Shankar has taken up films in other languages, indicating Ram Charan's and Ranveer Singh's films, instead of completing Indian 2 as per schedule.



Besides the legal suit, Lyca is also planning to approach the Telugu Film Producers Council and the film bodies in Bollywood to ensure that Shankar can't begin any other new film before wrapping up Indian 2. However, Shankar also submitted a counter-affidavit stating his reasons for the delay in making Indian 2. The Court has posted the proceedings to 4 June.

Meanwhile, Shankar had also announced the Hindi remake of his own directorial 2005 Tamil psychological action thriller, "Anniyan", with Ranveer Singh. With the Hindi remake of Anniyan, the director also found himself on the controversial side after Anniyan producer V Ravichandran claimed the copyright issues.

Meanwhile, the court order on "Indian 2" will make way for RC15. If it gives the decision in Lyca's favor, then Shankar has to complete Indian 2 first and then move on to Ram Charan's film, which looks anyway set to be delayed due to the pandemic.
