Shankar’s much-awaited 2.0 is all set for a grand release on coming Thursday, and fans are excited to catch the thrilling face-off between Superstar Rajinikanth and Akshay Kumar. Being one of the anticipated and biggest releases, the movie is expected to challenge the records set by Baahubali 2: The Conclusion (Hindi).
After the huge success of Baahubali: The Beginning, there was an immense hype around its sequel and since it was high on content too, the Baahubali 2: The Conclusion did record-breaking business in all the languages. Talking about its Hindi version, after taking a mammoth opening of 41 crores, the movie made stupendous collections of 128 crores in its 3-day opening weekend and is still unchallenged.

On the other hand, 2.0 is also a sequel to the 2010 blockbuster Enthiran (Robot in Hindi). Plus the addition of superstar Akshay Kumar opposite Thalaiva has increased the pan India value of the movie. Although 2.0 has a 4-day extended weekend, it needs to surpass the numbers of Baahubali 2 (128 crores) in just 3 days, as Prabhaas starrer enjoyed 3-day normal weekend. Talking about the opening for Hindi dubbed version, it would be less than Baahubali 2’s but if the word-of-mouth is positive, the sky will be the limit for 2.0.
