Sci-fi films are, as a rule, not common in Indian cinema, so when there is one on the anvil, it always spurs interest. When that sci-fi film stars superstar Rajinikanth in a sequel to a previous Rajini film, that interest becomes even more avid! To spice things up further, we shall have Akshay Kumar sharing screen space with the Southern Superstar. The teaser trailer is out and fans are going nuts!
Remember Chitti the robot? He is back. He is brought back to deal with a super-villain who appears to take away people's phones among other things.
The ever topical Google doodle did an animated doodle in response to the trending topic. The short clip features Chitti and Akshay Kumar as Crowman.
Rajini fans are very vocal and very many on Twitter. It was only a matter of time before the tweet storm started in response to Google's tweet.
Rajini may be any age (he is 67 FYI), but for some fans he is and will always be a superstar like no other. Age doesn’t matter when we speak of the Thaliavar!
Something like this, image of one guy pulling dozens of guns could only elicit a derisive laugh in usual circumstances… not when its Rajini though. Then, everything becomes plausible!
It is easy to lose sight of the fact that 2.0 has two super stars. This tweet reminds us that Akshay Kumar commands a huge following as well.
Akshay has rarely played the bad guy. He has done so here, however.
Some segments of the Indian audience seems willing to suspend disbelief for Hollywood and laps up the James Bonds and the Mission Impossibles. However, a slickly made Indian film with arguably superb special effects is criticised and scoffed at as being implausible.
The 2.0 teaser released via a unique theater screening to give people an idea of the full scale of what awaits them. The 3D screening was unique in that it gave viewers a realistic idea of what to expect from the movie that releases on 29 November 2018.
A phrase uttered by Rajini’s character in 2.0 caught everyone's fancy and everyone was tweeting using this image.
This is to be the most expensive Indian film ever made. It’s been trending at no 1 on YouTube India for days, the teaser has well over 27 million views. The movie is coming to a theatre near you on 29 November and Rajini fans cannot wait!
