Meanwhile, a source close to the film's unit told news agency IANS a 10-day shoot is still left for Vishwaroopam 2 including post-production work. "Actually, ten days of shoot is still left. That's not a major concern because the challenging part is in the post-production and it is going to be expensive. The producer is struggling to get funds," IANS quoted a source as saying.

Vishwaroopam 2 also stars Shekhar Kapur, Pooja Kumar and Andrea Jeremiah. The film is also written and directed by Kamal Haasan. The first part of the film released in 2013 after many controversies including a demand for title change and initial ban in Tamil Nadu and neighboring states. Vishwaroopam won several awards in the south and two National Awards.
