2:0 In Serious Trouble? Would The 3D Format Be Scrapped?

When  will  the Rajinikanth-Akshay Kumar starrer 2:0 finally release? The  beleaguered film has been groping through  a series of technical problems in the last 6 months eventuating  in  multiple  missed release dates.

Last heard  this Shankar-directed sequel to the 2015  film Robot was  postponed from April 27 to an unknown date.

A source  close to the  project now informs of a proposed  new date. “2: 0  would in all likelihood now open sometime in August. It all depends on how the 3D format  works out for  the  film.”

To go back a  bit , the American company  that was  given the task of  doing the  3D processing botched  up the job and the entire post-production had to be done from scratch again.

The latest information coming in from the 2: 0  team is that the 3D format may  be done away completely.

Says a  source  in the know, “This is a possibility. 2: 0  may be released in the normal 2D format if the 3D takes  much longer. The film can’t afford any  further delays. It has already gone  hugely over-budget.”
