Rajinikanth and Akshay Kumar's starrer 2.0 has been a long time coming. Shankar's much-awaited film ‘2.0’, which was originally set to arrive in cinemas last year on Diwali, kept postponing in order to allow more time for post-production. However, after too many rescheduling, in July, the makers confirmed that Robot will release on November 29. While fans of Thalaiva Rajinikanth and Akshay Kumar had been waiting for the teaser of 2.0 with bated breath, here's some good news. The teaser of 2.0, that has kept fans waiting for some time now, will finally release on the auspicious occasion of Ganesh Chaturthi that falls on September 13. Excited much?

Helmed by S Shankar, co-written by B Jeyamohan, and bankrolled by Subaskaran Allirajah, the sci-fi film, which is touted as the most expensive film not just in India, but across Asia, stars Amy Jackson in the lead role. The music for the film is scored by AR Rahman.

Recently, while talking to CNN IBN’s Rajeev Masand, musician AR Rahman said, “There are a lot of expectations riding on the film. What’s good about Shankar is this project, he is the right person. Anyone else would have broken by now. He is like an iron man held on to it saying “I won’t compromise. I want this quality. It’s in 3D, I just watched one song. No CG on it…mindblowing. Only this guy can do this. And there is a whole climax scene, which is incredible."

On the professional front, Rajinikanth was last seen in Kaala, written and helmed by Pa Rajinth and bankrolled by Rajinikanth’s son-in-law Dhanush, while Akshay Kumar is currently seen in Gold, where the actor has essayed the role of a Bengali hockey player in a pre-independence India.
