Indian 2 has got mixed reviews from viewers and critics. Kamal Haasan's performance as Senapathy is praised for being deep and charismatic, but the story and screenplay are seen as not as original or impactful as the first movie. Many felt the sequel didn't meet the high expectations of the original.
The film's visual effects and action scenes are appreciated, but some critics said the background music by Anirudh Ravichander and the prosthetic makeup weren't good enough. Despite these issues, the film's strong anti-corruption message and Haasan's powerful acting make it an important movie in Tamil cinema.
