It was slated to start shooting in early December, but finally filmmaker Shankar's next, 2.0, starring Rajinikanth, Akshay Kumar and Amy Jackson has gone on floors. The film’s executive producer, Pappu Shankar, told a tabloid, “The delay was primarily because of the December rains that destroyed the sets. The film’s crew, which comprises Western technicians for special effects, had to leave for the holidays.”Pappu adds since shooting for a film with special effects is time consuming, the team decided to postpone the schedule to January 17. However, that too didn't work as there were protests in the city for Jalikattu, which found support from Tamil celebs, including Rajinikanth. 2.0 finally rolled on Tuesday with Rajinikanth and Amy.
