Kajal Aggarwal has confirmed that she is a part of Kamal Haasan's highly-anticipated sequel to his 1996 superhit with director Shankar, Indian. "I'm working with Kamal Haasan sir in my next project. I'm looking forward to the film," said the Mersal actor on the sidelines of the pre-release event of her upcoming Telugu film, Kavacham.

While details of her role are being kept under wraps, the 33-year-old actor is expected to start shooting for Indian 2 around the middle of this month in a specially constructed set at Ramoji Film City, Hyderabad.

Meanwhile, Kamal, who plays a dual role in the film, has hired a personal trainer to get back in shape for the project. The film had made headlines earlier when producer Dil Raju backed out of it owing to royalty issues with reference to the title, and Lyca Productions, which recently bankrolled Shankar's 2.0, is now producing Indian 2. Anirudh Ravichander is scoring the music for the film which is to be made simultaneously in Telugu, Tamil and Hindi.
