Guru Somasundaram Replace Late Comedian Vivek in Indian 2


In December last year, we reported that actor Guru Somasundaram has been roped in by the makers of Kamal Haasan-starrer Indian 2 to play a major role in the highly-anticipated film. Now, as the Shankar directorial resumes shooting after two years on Wednesday, the reports have surfaced that Guru Somasundaram will reprise late comedian Vivek’s role in the film.
