Kamal Haasan may have decided to join politics, but the veteran actor-director is not bidding farewell to the cinema just yet. The actor will be seen in Shankar's highly anticipated 'Indian 2'. A sequel of 'Indian' which came out nearly two decades back, the film will have Haasan reprising his role as Senapathy, a freedom fighter-turned-vigilante bent on rooting out corruption.
