About
2.0 is a 2018 Indian Tamil-language science fiction action film[3][7] written and directed by S. Shankar. Produced by Subaskaran under the banner of Lyca Productions, the film is a standalone sequel to Enthiran (2010), featuring Rajinikanth reprising the roles of Vaseegaran and Chitti, alongside Akshay Kumar and Amy Jackson. Sudhanshu Pandey, Adil Hussain, Kalabhavan Shajohn, and K. Ganesh appear in supporting roles. The film follows the conflict between Chitti, the once dismantled humanoid robot, and Pakshirajan, an ornithologist who seeks vengeance on cell phone users to prevent avian population decline. The soundtrack is composed by A. R. Rahman, with lyrics written by Madhan Karky and Na. Muthukumar.
Produced on an estimated budget of ₹543 crore (US$76 million), 2.0 is the most expensive Indian film to date. Production began in 2015, with principal photography conducted at AVM Studios later that year. The first schedule was filmed at EVP World. Scenes were primarily shot in India, particularly in Chennai's Madras Boat Club and Delhi's Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium. Filming was completed by August 2017. The film is the first in Indian cinema to be natively shot in 3D, which was done by cinematographer Nirav Shah. Legacy Effects made their return to construct prosthetic makeup and animatronics, with visual effects supervised by V. Srinivas Mohan. Editing was handled by Anthony and production design was conducted by T. Muthuraj.
2.0 was released worldwide in both 3D and conventional format on 29 November 2018, along with its dubbed versions in Hindi and Telugu. It received generally positive reviews upon release. Critics particularly praised the film's visual effects, performances of Rajinikanth and Kumar, and social message; the pace and screenplay received criticism. It earned ₹117.34 crore (US$16 million) worldwide on its first day, which was the second highest ever for an Indian film. The film crossed ₹400 crore (US$56 million) in its opening weekend to emerge as the highest-grossing film worldwide for that week. As of 6 December 2018, 2.0 has earned ₹520 crore (US$72 million), and is one of the highest-grossing Indian films worldwide.
PLOT
A man, surrounded by birds, hangs himself to death at a cell tower. Elsewhere, the scientist Vaseegaran introduces Nila, his new humanoid robot, to a group of students. A little later, a student's smartphone starts flying all on a sudden, exhibiting avian characteristics. Before long, cell phones all over Tamil Nadu begin to fly away, leaving the state in chaos. At an emergency council meeting initiated by the government, Vaseegaran enunciates that it is beyond conventional science to fight what he considers a fifth force, and proposes reinstating Chitti, which was dismantled in 2010. However, Dhinendra Bohra, who lost his father Professor Bohra to Chitti's anger,[a] opposes, and the council decides to seek help from the military, thereby vetoing Vaseegaran's proposal. However, the military is attacked by a swarm of mobile phones.
The growing stream of mobile phones leave havoc in its path, killing a cell phone wholesaler Jayanth Kumar, a transmission tower owner Ranjit Lulla and the state's telecom minister Vairamurthy. To prevent further damage, Vijay Kumar, the Home Minister, unofficially gives Vaseegaran permission to rebuild Chitti again. Chitti traces the mobile phones, which have taken the form of a giant crow, and they fight, during which Chitti's battery power is depleted and it starts searching for a power source amongst three huge signal transmitters. To Vaseegaran's surprise, the crow is unable to penetrate the field of transmitters and suffers damage when attempting to do so.
Vaseegaran then learns from Chitti that the bird is powered by a body of negative energy, or aura, of a single human being and numerous birds. The radiation from the antennae and other living organisms are positively-charged aura while the dead are negatively-charged, allowing the parabolic antennae to repel the bird. Had it entered the electromagnetic field, the combination of both auras would neutralise the bird, preventing it from reassembling. With this in mind, Vaseegaran replicates a smaller version of the antennae and sets off to an abandoned house in Tirukalukundram with Chitti and Nila to destroy the bird. When the neutralisation process is about 50 percent, the bird weakens and then reassembles into a human, who calls himself Pakshirajan.
Pakshirajan used to be an ornithologist who owned the now abandoned house where birds would come and live with him. The growth of the mobile phone industries and the radiation from the newly set up cell towers gradually kill the birds. Pakshirajan then visits Jayanth Kumar, Ranjit Lulla and the telecom minister to request them to limit their activities but to no avail. He also organises conferences and protests against mobile phones for the favour of birds, but no one supports him. Eventually, all his birds die, and a distraught Pakshirajan hangs himself to death from a cell tower. His life energy, along with the dead birds, combine together to form an aura that manipulates mobile phones into any form by electromagnetic radiation.
Chitti empathises with Pakshirajan, but asserts that he should not kill people. Pakshirajan declines, and attacks him. Chitti reactivates the antennae and neutralises Pakshirajan, storing his energy in a containment circuit. This feat helps Vaseegaran's cause and the Home Minister legalises Chitti. He also orders that robots like Chitti be made for the Indian Army. Jealous of Chitti's resurgence, Dhinendra sneaks into the Artificial Intelligence Research and Development (AIRD) Institute and frees Pakshirajan's aura from the containment circuit. The aura enters Vaseegaran, enabling Pakshirajan to possess his body and attack humans. Chitti hesitates to kill him, as it would mean killing Vaseegaran too. Taking advantage of this, Pakshirajan disassembles Chitti.
Nila takes Chitti back to the lab and rebuilds its body, replacing its microchip with the red chip created by Bohra,[a] which results in Chitti's violent configuration, version 2.0, being in control. Nila constrains it from harming anyone but Pakshirajan. Chitti then creates more versions of its likeness. Pakshirajan meanwhile takes over a crowded football stadium and exposes Dhinendra to radiation, killing him. Chitti and its army of robots arrive and confronts him, resulting in a battle between the two. However, its battery drains, and it rushes to the power station. During this time, microbots resembling Chitti, called as Kutty version 3.0, arrive mounted on white pigeons, distracting Pakshirajan and separate his aura from Vaseegaran. The microbots lead Pakshirajan's aura to the antennae, where he is eliminated. Vaseegaran recovers in hospital and tells Vijay Kumar, who comes to see him, that he feels Pakshirajan was a virtuous person who became a victim of the corrupt society. He also suggests that everyone should limit the use of phones, and conserve the lives of birds as much as possible. Chitti, now restored to its inceptive version, begins a relationship with Nila, to which Vaseegaran gives his consent.
In a mid-credits scene, Sana asks Vaseegaran over the phone about the probability of mobile phones flying again. Immediately, Vaseegaran's mobile flies out of his hand and morphs into Kutty, saying, "I am your grandson".
