2.0 goes to the bank!




2.0 doesn’t release till October but S. Shankar has already pocketed a fat sum for its satellite rights!


Apparently a TV channel has shelled out over $16.5 million for the rights to the sci-fi flick’s Tamil, Telugu and Hindi versions. If the figure is correct then this is the highest price ever paid for the satellite rights of a regional film, which is fitting since 2.0 is supposed to be India’s most expensive film ever at a budget of $60 million. I’m sure the Rajnikath and Akshay Kumar starrer will live up to all the hype.

Rajinikanth-Akshay starrer film 2.0’s satellite right bagged for 110 crore!

The satellite rights for megastar Rajnikanth and Akshay Kumar magnum opus 2.0 has been purchased by Zee Network. The film will be made in three languages- Hindi, Telugu, and Tamil. 

Taking to Twitter, COO of Lyca Production and the producer of the movie posted, “It’s true Lyca Productions gets a partner in Zee for our mega opus 2.o Satellite."

Well, Zee has bagged the rights for a whopping Rs 110 crore deal. 

The film is a sequel to Rajnikanth starrer Enthiran (2010) and is being directed by S Shankar. With this, Akshay Kumar is all set to make his Tamil debut wherein he will be playing the role of an antagonist.

The first look of the film was disclosed last year and it was intriguing as hell. In the first look, Akshay can be seen standing and above him, 2.0 shape is made with tons of robotic avatars of Rajni and a ray of light coming from the sky.

The sci-fi 2.0 also stars Amy Jackson, Sudhanshu Pandey and Adil Hussain in key roles. The music is given by maestro A R Rahman.

Made on a massive budget of Rs 450-crore (approx) the movie is expected to hit the theatres this Diwali.


Besides this, Akshay Kumar will also be seen in Toilet Ek Prem Katha opposite Bhumi Pednakar. He will also be seen doing an extended cameo in Neeraj Pandey's Naam Shabana. Akshay is currently shooting for wife Twinkle Khanna's maiden production project Padman in a small town in Madhya Pradesh.
