The first look poster of Rajinikanth and Akshay Kumar from Shankar’s 2.0 launched on Sunday in Mumbai. The sequel to Enthiran (Robo in Telugu and Robot in Hindi) is touted to be the costliest project in Indian cinema.

This is first of its kind as the first look of Rajinikanth and Akshay Kumar were launched in 3D by Lyca Productions. The film features Rajinikanth and Amy Jackson playing the lead roles and Akshay Kumar playing the villain as a crazy doctor.

Rajnikanth Says Akshay Kumar Is The Real Hero:

Rajinikanth himself lauded Akshay and declared him the real hero of the movie. “To work with Shankar is difficult. He is a perfectionist.  That is why he is one of the biggest directors. This picture as 3D is a different experience. But the truth is Akshay Kumar  is the hero,” said Rajinikanth.

“If given a chance, I would have played Akshay’s character. He is the real hero of the film.” Rajni added.
