Ayalaan 2 Confirmed: Sivakarthiyan is currently basking in the success of the latest Tamil sci-fi movie 'Ayalaan', which has been receiving a lot of love and appreciation from the audience. It was earlier reported that 'Ayalaan' will return with a sequel but the makers neither confirmed nor denied it. 'Ayalaan 2' has now officially been announced by the production houses PhantomFX and KJR Studios. The studios issued an official statement to announce 'Ayalaan 2' and promised to surpass the film's first instalment.

Ayalaan 2 Confirmed:

In an earlier interview with Hindustan Times, Sivakarthikeyan talked about why 'Ayalaan' got delayed for three years. He said, "This is a fantasy film – what happens when something extraordinary happens in everyday life? What would happen if an alien came into your normal life? The idea was interesting, and when I heard the story, it was exciting. At every stage of the film, as we shot and added computer graphics (CG), the story evolved, and that was exciting. You need a lot of patience to make a film like this."

He added, "We completed the film shoot by February 2020, but we couldn’t start CG work till the Covid-19 pandemic settled down. The CG company shut down due to Covid-19, and we couldn’t work on it for two years. There were also financial issues, which got resolved but that also delayed the film."

Talking about how satisfied he is with 'Ayalaan', Sivakarthikeyan told Hindustan Times, "Yes, I am. That’s the reason why we put the film on hold. Even when the financial issues came up, we wanted to sort them out and make the kind of film we had in mind. If it was a regular film, we could have looked at cutting out a song or some scenes and so on to finish the film faster and reduce the budget."

Directed by R Ravikumar and produced by Kotapadi J Rajesh, 'Ayalaan' also stars Rakul Preet Singh in the lead role with Sharad Kelkar, Isha Koppikar, Bhanupriya, Yogi Babu, Karunakaran and Bala Saravanan in the pivotal roles. Siddharth has given his voice to the alien in the movie.

The movie revolves around a man, who becomes friends with an alien named Tattoo. They try to stop a scientist from making a deadly Nova gas, which can endanger the Earth.
