Rajinikanth is currently busy prepping for Shankar's 2.0, a sequel to his 2010 hit film Enthiran. Rajinikanth reprises the role of Dr Vaseegaran and this time he is pitted against another scientist, Dr Richard, played by Akshay Kumar. Dr Richard's experiment goes disastrously wrong and he mutates into some sort of birdman. 2.0 also stars Sudhanshu Pandey, who plays Professor Bohra's (Danny Denzongpa) son seeking revenge for his father's death at the hands of Vaseegaran-created robot Chitti. 2.0 also stars Amy Jackson and is set to release on Diwali, next year.
