The teaser of director Shankar’s upcoming film 2.0 shows an ultimate showdown between its two stars, Rajinikanth and Akshay Kumar, who are seen as the “biggest rivals” battling it out between good and evil.

On the occasion of Ganesh Chaturthi on September 13, Akshay, who will be seen playing a supervillain named Richard, tweeted: “On the auspicious occasion of Ganesh Chaturthi, doing Shree Ganesh of India’s Grandest Film: ‘2.0’ ! Here’s a glimpse of the biggest rivalry, good or evil... Who decides.”

The over one minute teaser, which sees a high dose of CGI work, begins with a shot of birds circling over city skies, which later is being seen taken over by flying cell phones. People seem confused as the swirl of phones create havoc.

Rajinikanth, who is reprising his role as Dr. Vaseegaran and also Chitti, suggests that they take out Chitti the Robot and make him their weapon in the battle against Akshay’s character.

He is heard saying: “This is beyond science, for this we need a superpower... Chitti the robot.”
