Empuraan 3 In Works
Prithviraj Sukumaran, who is busy promoting his upcoming movie L2: Empuraan, spoke during a media interaction in Chennai about whether there will be a third part. Confirming Empuraan 3, he said, “When I made the first part, I made sure that it was a self-contained film, with a proper ending to the story. However, with Empuraan, I have taken a chance as a filmmaker. This film will need the third part for its completion. Currently, the story idea for the third part is in the nascent stage.”
L2: Empuraan, which is set to hit theatres on March 27, is already creating a buzz with its pre-booking collections. It has already collected Rs 60 crore worldwide.
Sharing the response the film has been receiving ahead of its release, Prithviraj said, “I just received a call from the producer, who informed me that the film has already collected Rs 60 crore. This is the worldwide collection. All of us were confident that the film would be met with a lot of excitement, but this is way beyond our prediction. We are humbled and hope to live up to such huge expectations.”
