Super Star Rajinikanth and director Shankar collaborated for a mega magnum opus titled 2.0. The film released in Telugu and Tamil languages already and went on to do average business at the box-office. The movie unit planned to release the film in China and many top production/distribution houses in the country competed to grab the rights for the movie.

Unfortunately, the Chinese company HY Media that brought the rights of the movie for a whopping amount called off the release of the movie in the last minute. The film was supposed to hit more than 50K screens on July 12th. But, the distributor backed out now since he is not sure of the movie which needs to collect 175 crores which are the only way to gain the profits on the movie.

The negotiations are going on but there is no clarity if the film will release on a later date.

Super Star Rajinikanth’s 2.O is in theatres now. The movie released worldwide in almost 6500 screens. The fans all over the world celebrated the film’s release in style but at one place, the screening was halted by the fans as they wanted the theatre management to put a pause at the introduction scene to celebrate Superstar’s entry in the movie.

The fans requested to stop the scene and the theatre management too obliged for the same. Rajinikanth fans then began the celebrations and enjoyed it without any interruption. The fans shared the same video on Twitter.

One of the fan handles on Twitter shared the video and tagged the key unit from the movie. “The movie has been paused for 3 minutes. Thalaiva’s first look in the movie is being celebrated in style? #2Point0 #2Point0FDFS !!@RIAZtheboss @aditi1231@LMKMovieManiac @resulp@shankarshanmugh @iamAmyJackson @anirudhofficial@LycaProductions”

The film was received well in all the areas that it released.

The piracy website, Tamilrockers has become a huge threat to the Indian film industry. The website is leaking the full movie online only hours after the theatrical release of the flick which is making the distributors sleepless.

After leaking the full movies of Vijay’s ‘Sarkar’ and Aamir Khan-Amitabh Bachchan starrer ‘Thugs of Hindostan’, the Tamilrockers website is threatening to leak superstar Rajinikanth’s ‘2.0’ too. The website has made this threat on social media. However, the Twitter handle was suspended within a few minutes. But a new handle popped up and created a ruckus. The makers have even urged to take strict action against the website but no strict action has been taken until now. Nadigar Sangam and Police are currently searching for the culprits.

Directed by Shankar, ‘2.0’ featuring Rajinikanth, Akshay Kumar and Amy Jackson will hit the theatres on November 29. Made with a humongous budget of Rs. 500 crores, the leak threat has now become a headache for the makers as well as distributors.
