As reported earlier, some unconfirmed reports also suggest that Vikram 2 and Kaithi 2 are being planned as one project, with Kamal Haasan and Karthi's characters joining hands to achieve a bigger goal. An official announcement on both the sequels are expected to be made very soon. If this happens, it will be the biggest crossover in the history of Tamil cinema.

Fahadh Faasil, the National award-winning actor who played Amar, Suriya who made a cameo appearance as 'Rolex,' and Narain's character Bejoy, are expected to be a part of the sequels of both Vikram and Kaithi. In an earlier interview, Kamal Haasan had confirmed that Suriya's character Rolex will make a full-fledged appearance in Vikram 3, the third part of the franchise.
